“The inspiration for the collection is Paris,” says Liel Yamin, designer and owner of Liel & Cavalli. “This is a romantic, puffy, flowing, and floral collection photographed at a castle, along with a sexy and playful collection shot on Parisian streets.” Looking at the dresses from Liel & Cavalli, the inspiration is evident. Liel’s designs perfectly blend soft, romantic femininity with unapologetic, powerful sexiness. The collection features a unique mix of designs that combine delicacy with modern boldness, with a strong focus on materials and attention to detail. The dresses speak the language of haute couture with couture touches.
This extensive collection from a designer with over a decade in the industry offers more than 200 models, all from the past year. While Yamin suggests doing some 'homework' before visiting the studio to ensure the style resonates, there are plenty of options to explore.
One standout motif is Yamin’s love for flowers – whether it’s sexy designs enveloping the body in delicate, almost invisible floral lace, three-dimensional floral appliqués becoming denser at the hem for an elegant look, glittering flowers with a Hollywood flair, or grand couture gowns with flowing skirts adorned with soft, three-dimensional floral fabric for a royal appearance.
The collection seamlessly transitions between feminine, princess-like looks with flowing skirts, large, soft sleeves, abundant lace, and surprising cuts, and designs that emphasize the body and celebrate the bride’s femininity – not only with deep slits and waist emphasis but also with unexpected transparency, back cutouts, and length variations. There are also sparkling mini dresses that can be worn as a second dress or skirts in various lengths for a modern look.
For those who find themselves among the dream dresses and want to add more drama, it seems that oversized accessories are the perfect addition. Liel & Cavalli offer brides large, puffy sleeve additions in soft, sheer fabrics for a loose look, a more rigid, dramatic style, or soft fabric appliqués resembling feathers. For brides dreaming of leaving everyone breathless on their way to the altar, there are dresses with large, dramatic trains that create a striking entrance, with an unexpected length that commands attention.
Beyond the vast selection, Yamin recommends arriving with an open mind, knowing that fittings offer flexibility and personalization, with the option to mix elements to create the perfect dress. Whether the bride dreams of a gown with a dramatic train, designed puffy sleeves, or a sparkling dress full of stones, long or short, from classic looks to designs playing with various concepts, each dress in the collection is created with a bride who is confident, loves her body, and understands that being romantic and soft does not contradict the desire to be powerful and uncompromising.
