We are no painter, no artist at all really, so bear with us while we try to paint this picture. Clear blue waters. Olive trees. Colorful flowers. Wooden shutters. The sound of cicadas. Freshly cut fruit. Homemade lemon juice. Pastel yellow houses. Sunflower fields. Plane trees. Sapphire creeks. Warm nights. Champagne. Pink sunsets. A turquoise dream. A dream.

 

“She was made of pastel yellow houses and blue wooden shutters.”

This picture… this picture shows everything and nothing. There’s so much more to the South of France, to France, than beautiful beaches and glitzy lifestyles – although those are worth mentioning, too. It’s the place to discover a wide cross-section of culture, all under the gaze of the Mediterranean sun. It’s glamour and bling, but it’s also tradition and culture; it’s yachts in St. Tropez but it’s also families that have lived there for centuries. South of France is its people, the kind of people who know how to dress and have a firm sense of style. South of France is love of art and good food. South of France is love – it’s love of love. South of France is the kind of place where you elope with the love of your life; just you, your families and your closest friends. South of France is the kind of place you go to live out the magic. South of France is the kind of place where Lillian West is born and raised.

The Lillian West Spring/Summer 2022 collection draws inspiration from the free-spirited French artisans. Full of personality, these sultry designs blend earthy textures, destination-ready silhouettes, modern necklines and distinctive sleeves to bring a series of carefree artistic wedding gowns. Wildly romantic and designed for the individual, edgy organic laces, whimsical skirts and sexy sheer details break away from bridal traditions and embrace the imagination of every bride. Striking trains, low open backs and unusual embroidery trims bring their own unique spark, showcasing the true craftsmanship that goes into every special gown.

Organic and ethereal, style 66212 is a fit and flare bridal dress that will have you looking out of this world. Featuring a daring plunging V-neck, the sheer bodice is accented with illusion side insets and a V-back. Sequined and beaded appliqués are blended with 3D laser cut chiffon appliqués that float throughout the gown. Detachable tulle shoulder bows add a soft and feminine touch. Designed with curve contouring shapewear mesh lining, your hourglass shape will be defined. Tulle covered buttons accent the back of the gown drawing the eye to the chapel length train.

Shine through your day wearing style 66222, a modern tulle and lace A-line bridal dress. The sexy plunging V-neck is detailed with tonal beading while illusion side insets lead to an illusion V-back. Beaded and sequined lace appliqués add a touch of whimsy from the bodice to the the hem while an underlayer of glitter tulle acts as the perfect shimmering canvas. The back reveals a unique petal train detailed with lace as the final wow-factor. 

A bridal dress for the wanderlust bride, A-line style 66205 has effortless movement throughout the chiffon skirt. The chic plunging V-neckline sets off the bodice with side illusion insets and a V-back. A soft Chantilly lace underlay is the perfect canvas for sequined appliqués that float just past the natural waist. Lightly scattered beading brings a touch of shimmer while covered buttons cascade to the end of the chapel length train. It's paired with a delicate detachable tulle bow for that extra touch magic.

The fit and flare style 66208 is truly for a goddess of love and beauty. Allover lace shapes this ethereal design, lined in jersey for effortless comfort. The chic V-neckline bodice is lined to the side seams giving way to a modern V-back. Flowy lace flutter sleeves trimmed with scalloped eyelash lace extend past the chapel length train creating an edgy cape effect.
