All About Embellishment
Why We Love the Season of Sparkles
At Hope & Ivy, occasionwear is where our passion lies – creating beautiful dresses and extra special pieces that deserve a coveted spot in the forever wardrobes of our loyal customers.
While print and embroidery are our bread and butter, particularly at this time of year, we find ourselves turning more and more like magpies towards the shimmer and sparkle of embellishment – with heavily sequinned beauties such as The Bambi appearing in our brand-new Timeless Tapestry collection. This velvet party staple is cut to a midi-length silhouette and is strewn with thousands of glittering silver sequins, offering an effortless sense of old Hollywood glamour alongside a boned bodice for a figure-flattering, feminine fit.
We’ve also brought embellishment into our best-selling wrap dress style this year, with The Honey, which promises our signature waist tie, plus semi-sheer, full length blouson sleeves for extra coverage, and intricate beading decorating a raspberry pink base.
And then we’ve listened to you... the customers who have helped us continually grow across the last 9 years, bringing back last year’s best-selling style The Shay, plus three brand-new colorways of this timeless design – The Tabby in an icy silver, The Rosalie with electric blue adornments, and The Anastasia – a midnight blue beauty that’s sure to be a seasonal favourite!
