A timeless icon for over a century
The bow dress has a rich fashion history dating back to the early days of couture. Originally used as a decorative touch, bows quickly became iconic in their own right. From the 18th century onwards, bows adorned bodices and sleeves, evolving into the focal point of elegant gowns.
Over the decades, the bow dress has reinvented itself while staying true to its roots. From the classic 1950s silhouette to today’s modern interpretations, the bow remains a beloved design detail. Whether you're channelling a romantic vintage look or a sleek, contemporary vibe, the bow symbolises timeless femininity and style.
