First Light by Prea James – 2022 collection

 

 

It’s no secret we adore a Prea James gown (as do many of our Ivory Tribe brides) and her latest collection, First Light, has left us feeling giddy over her gorgeous designs.

Emerging from what have been some difficult years for all, First Light symbolises new beginnings. An opportunity to look forward with hope and fresh perspective and the importance of focusing on the simple things in life that bring us joy and a sense of calm.

First Light is a thoughtful capsule collection of pieces that represent the true vision of a Prea James bride. Introducing five dresses and five interchangeable separates that can be worn with pieces from previous collections including the Embrace civil ceremony collection.

What we love most about Prea James is her design philosophy that ‘simplicity is the ultimate sophistication’. She constantly draws inspiration from her real brides, catering to relaxed and modern brides who want something fashionable and unique for their own wedding day.

Prea James gowns embody understated elegance. With her fashionable yet relaxed take on bridal, Prea has a keen eye for an unfaltering fit and hand finishes that add that special touch to each gown.
