Awaken Your Myth – Sculpted Thalassa Gown

Part of the Awaken Your Myth Collection presented at ATHENS FASHION WEEK, the Sculpted Thalassa Gown draws its spirit from the ancient Greek personification of the sea — a symbol of depth, movement, and the quiet power of feminine myth. A celebration of craftsmanship, femininity and contemporary couture, the Sculpted Thalassa Gown transforms myth into movement and the runway into a moment of timeless romance.

This gown emerges as a fluid work of art, where sculptural precision meets the ebb and flow of water-like texture. The structured, strapless bodice is crafted with luminous, finely folded fabric that contours the body in serene, architectural lines. It evokes the calm surface of still waters — poised, pure, and undeniably strong.

From this refined upper silhouette, the gown cascades into a mesmerizing skirt defined by translucent layers and swirling, wave-inspired motifs. Sheer panels and textural currents interplay to create a sense of continuous motion, echoing the rhythms of Thalassa herself. Each step reveals a shifting dance of light and form, elevating the gown into a living expression of modern bridal artistry.

Bodice: Sculpted Handcrafted pleating for architectural contouring. Build in Bra with hidden back closing included. Invisible back zip with internal fastening

Skirt: Semi-sheer textural chiffon and organza panels, High airflow movement for fluidity on the runway

Fabrics: Chiffon, Organza, Silk-blend sculpting fabric, Embroidered tulle 

Color: Pure ivory and cream white

How it works: Up to 100% Customization


1. We can simply discuss design changes on the current collection we own to come to the desired look. Assume we need 7 weeks from order to delivery.
2. We can see possible design you have in mind or you have already drawn and we can check feasibility & fabric options to provide a cost estimation for. Assume we need 8 weeks from order to delivery.
​3. We can start together from scratch designing bespoke dress. You can share with us a photo of your body type, the concept you have thought for your wedding and we can provide a tailored design for you. Then we can check for fabrics and provide a cost estimation to discuss together. Assume that we need to have at least 10 weeks before the big day to make sure there is available time for all the handmade process.
