Designer Spotlight: The Adiepena Bridal Collection by Felisiti Greis

Kicking this week off with this STUNNING wedding dress collection by Felisiti Greis. The Adiepena collection is a true breath of fresh air. Adiepena is of Akan origin and means: “something so rare and valuable, that is difficult to find anywhere else.” This collection is for the modern bride seeking quality and uniqueness to escape the norm. It embodies comfort, luxury and elegance.

The Adiepena collection is a small, but impactful collection of 4 exquisite couture pieces which are beautifully handcrafted with careful attention to detail. This collection encapsulates Felisiti Greis perfectly as a brand, in terms of our design aesthetics. With an eye for stunning detailing, creative director Felicity constructed these dresses using couture techniques to create beautiful inner workings and intricate embellishment for the pieces. The dresses have finer details, stunning silhouettes and impeccable fit.

“I am a strong believer in quality over quantity and wanted to create pieces that were handcrafted with a lot of thought,” said the designer.  “I am always looking for ways to contribute to the sustainability of fashion as a whole and my decision to create fewer pieces allows for a small yet impactful collection. I knew the 4 couture pieces that made up the collection had to be pieces that fully embodies Felisiti Greis as a brand. There are 3 wedding dresses and a translucent two tiered mint dress with bustier bodice, which is perfect for outdoor occasions. One of the wedding dresses, which has an all over clear sequins, from this collection is an up cycled luxury bridal couture gown. You don’t usually hear, up cycled, luxury and couture in the same sentence, but maybe we should hear it more often. If luxury and couture pieces are costing our environment dearly, then we need to rethink what luxury and couture means.”
