Editor's Notes

A study in subtle sensuality. Gleam pairs the intimacy of nude illusion lace with the sculptural line of a fitted mermaid silhouette, creating a gown that reads as refined rather than revealing and transforms to suit the moment.

The semi-sheer corset is cut from embroidered lace over a light skin-tone base, giving the effect of lace resting directly on skin. A soft V-neckline frames the décolletage with quiet precision, set on fine shoulders that allow the embroidered pattern to take the visual lead. The fitted skirt follows the body through the hip before releasing into a small train that catches the light with every movement. For bridal versatility, Gleam offers two transformation options: removable lace sleeves extend the bodice into a long-sleeve silhouette for ceremony, and a full tulle overskirt adds volume and drama when desired. A lined version is available, as is an ivory colorway for brides who prefer a traditional tone over the signature nude illusion.

  • Silhouette: Mermaid, fitted through the hip
  • Fabric: Embroidered lace over light skin illusion base
  • Neckline: Soft V
  • Bodice: Semi-sheer corset with nude illusion effect
  • Skirt: Fitted with small train
  • Transformation options: Removable lace sleeves, removable full tulle overskirt
  • Versions available: Lined and unlined
  • Colors available: Nude illusion, ivory
  • Designer: Pollardi

Why we love it

Gleam is a gown built around the idea of transformation. The base silhouette is quietly sensual, the embroidered lace doing the work of covering and revealing in equal measure. Add the removable sleeves and the gown becomes suited to a traditional ceremony. Add the tulle overskirt and it becomes a ball gown for the aisle, ready to release into the fitted silhouette for reception. Few designers handle transformation this fluently. Pollardi's construction ensures each configuration reads as intentional, not as a modification to a base design. This is a gown for the bride who wants more than one look on her wedding day without compromising the integrity of either.

Style notes

Best suited for brides planning distinct ceremony and reception moods, or for venues that move between settings across the day. The nude illusion reads most beautifully in natural light and golden hour; the ivory version works seamlessly in evening and candlelight settings. Pair with fine crystal or diamond drop earrings and a soft, unstructured hairstyle to complement the gown's quiet sensuality. A cathedral or chapel veil supports the ceremony look with the sleeves and overskirt; remove all three for reception to reveal the fitted silhouette. Minimal jewelry at the neckline allows the V and the illusion work to lead.
