Lir Wedding Dress

Woven with folkloric elegance, the Lir Wedding Dress draws from ancient Irish beauty to create something enduringly soulful. Crafted from delicate floral cotton lace layered over a soft breathable cotton, it features a beautifully structured bodice with a flattering V waist vertical satin ribbon channels that flatter and contour the waist in a corset-inspired silhouette.

The square neckline and wide straps frame the shoulders with clean elegance, while the gently flared skirt opens at the front to reveal a flowing cotton skirt underneath, allowing movement and layering to dance together. With its structured bodice and open-front skirt, this design evokes a folkloric elegance with a hint of old-world royalty. One of the most enchanting features of this dress is its light flowing chiffon detachable sleeves. They attach delicately with velcro at the upper arms allowing for two distinct looks in one gown offering you flexibility throughout your special day.

At the back, the bodice ties at the upper shoulders with a cotton cord decorated with small tassels at the end while dipping into a soft V-shaped neckline, creating a graceful look.

Designed with versatility, symbolism, and storytelling in mind, the Lir dress offers freedom throughout your day, from handfasting ceremony to evening celebration.

Our bridal gowns are crafted in standard sizes and thoughtfully designed to be easily altered by your local seamstress for a truly personal fit. We’re here to guide you in selecting the best size.

Each dress is crafted using repurposed deadstock fabrics, making it not only a conscious choice in style, but a true reflection of circular fashion values. Our gowns honour both the earth and the occasion, embodying the spirit of an ethical wedding.

🧵This has been designed by the designer and founder of Celtic Fusion; Regina Tierney. Her inspiration comes from her home place in County Clare in the West of Ireland where the Celtic Fusion Studio is based. Celtic Fusion was designed to create a connection to nature through unique clothing. The designs are inspired by Celtic spirituality and ancient paganism - beliefs centered around the natural world and the cycle of life. So, naturally, sustainability and ethics are a top priority in the construction of the clothing you purchase. We hope to create a new standard for the impact of fashion with our choice of fabrics, construction processes, and positive work practices. Our production would not be possible without our skilled team in India where Irish designer Regina Tierney works for 3 months of each year over-seeing our entire work process and production in every element to create our ethical designs.
