For MOJEH’s May issue we celebrate all things bridal – and that includes the iconic white dress.

Evoking more than just purity, the iconic white dress transcends styles, seasons and a walk down the aisle. Whether you fall for the freedom found in a bohemian version or the austere of a tailored gown, there’s a wardrobe for every type of woman. Here we chart the white dress, as seen on the pages of MOJEH, and celebrate its infinite opportunity.
Return to the carefree days of the seventies by slipping into a free and easy style – statements can often be made with simplicity.
The white dress provides a blank canvas that allows you to forgo the dressed up and take a casual turn in men’s brogues. A relaxed silhouette keeps things minimal and fit for any situation.
Embellishment adds a soft but lavish tone to lengthy silk gowns. Perfect for a walk to remember. Beach optional.
Boxy shapes and structured coats hark back to the glamorous ages of Hollywood’s Golden Era. Channel a fifties screen siren in chic coats paired with demure gloves.
Turn up the volume in a statement grabbing dress-coat, which keeps things glamorous without the cliché ruffles and overtly feminine style. Indulge in a dose of dressed up cool.
The archetypal white dress comes in all silhouettes and styles, but none stands out in its simplicity quite like a block column dress.
Exquisite beading belongs to the woman who proudly displays her femininity – floral details provide the crowning glory.
Take on elegance in chiffon and silk with a high neck and embellished waistline. A pussy bow gives an old world charm and remains universally chic.
The softest of white dresses can lead us into dream-like lands, ready to embrace and explore new and infinite territories.
The romance of a full skirt and luxurious fabrics can’t be ignored. This is for a woman who holds on to tradition and feminine values with both her heart and her style.
