Abby Mini: A Perfect Start to the Festivities
Abby Mini by Jimmy Wong is all about fun. Its playful flounce and twirl-ready silhouette make it a natural choice for engagement party dresses. Crafted in a soft stretch Mikado, it moves with ease while holding its shape. The modern basque waistline adds just enough detail to keep things interesting without overcomplicating the look. This dress is ideal for brides who want to kick off their celebrations in a way that feels lighthearted, stylish, and totally dance-friendly.
Atari: Lace and Loveliness for Your Shower
For a bridal shower dress that’s both romantic and refined, Atari is the one to beat. This midi-length A-line features allover lace, a high-low hemline, and a sweet little train in the back. The thicker lace straps frame the sweetheart neckline in a flattering way, offering both support and elegance. It’s a dress that strikes the perfect balance—feminine, breezy, and ideal for that daytime celebration with your closest friends and family.
Brooklyn: Bold for the Bachelorette
Brooklyn is the showstopper you want for your wildest night out. This shimmering, feathered mini is high on sparkle and personality. While it isn’t traditionally bridal, it absolutely makes a statement—perfect for your bachelorette weekend or for brides who want to have some fun with their fashion. Whether it’s the fringe, the sequins, or the energy it brings to the room, Brooklyn is a must-have for brides who aren’t afraid to shine.
Sage: Refined Style for Rehearsal Night
Sage offers a polished look for your rehearsal dinner with a little bit of edge. The rich taffeta fabric feels luxurious, while the plunging neckline and side slit keep it from feeling too buttoned up. A high back adds balance to the silhouette. If you’re on the hunt for a rehearsal dinner dress that feels elevated but still comfortable, this one lets you enjoy the moment without stealing the spotlight from your wedding gown.
Holly: A Reception Look Made for Dancing
After you’ve wowed in your wedding gown, Holly is the perfect change for your reception. This short lace beauty brings the movement and breathability you want when it’s time to hit the dance floor. The flattering V-neck adds a little flair while keeping things wedding-appropriate, and the lightweight design gives you freedom to move all night. Holly isn’t just a fun second look—it’s a full-on celebration in dress form.
