Phillipa Lepley x Emmy London
Two iconic British brands, trusted by brides the world over, have come together in an exciting collaboration. An exquisite Phillipa Lepley couture wedding or evening dress paired with beautiful Emmy London hand-embroidered shoes is a match made in heaven.
BRITISH CRAFTSMANSHIP
Both based in London and with female founders at the helm, Phillipa Lepley and Emmy London are leaders in their respective fields in the luxury bridal world.
They are completely focused on making the most beautiful pieces for special occasions and have shared a mutual respect for a long time. It made perfect sense to come together to create a unique shoe option which acts as an elegant and subtle way to create a truly complete outfit.
“The dress seamlessly blends into the shoes to create a complete bridal look in such a unique bespoke way. It’s also wonderful to think about the shoes being worn multiple times after their wedding day on many other occasions.”
THE CREATIVE PROCESS
The shoes take three months to make. The designs are hand-embroidered onto fine tulle then stretched and mounted over suede. Brides are invited to select a style from Emmy London, which is then finished with a bespoke Phillipa Lepley embroidery to complement their dress.
Wild flowers, one of the four embroidery designs, features muted tones of specific wildflowers organically growing in such a way that each shoe is different from the other.
“I admire Phillipa hugely; her aesthetic is nothing less than perfection. Our shoes, handmade together with precision, care and love, are delicate, detailed and unique – created to be treasured forever.”
