about us
I believe my style is very feminine and focuses a lot on silhouette. I draw inspiration from fashion archives especially the corset structures of gown - the detail work of the interior structure of a gown which for the outside is unnoticeable but internally there are so many components which create a great shape. I am also inspired by the fabrication and embellishments I work with - beautiful laces, embroidered and beaded pieces, and I believe this shows through as my ‘signature style’ as well.

our approach / working with us
Karen Willis Holmes established her couture presence in Australia in 2000, the success of her designs inspired Karen in 2004 to create bespoke and Ready to Wear Bridal collections. These collections catering to clients who require a wedding dress with couture - like quality and innovative designs. Bespoke Collection: This collection evokes Karen’s love of corsetry and structure. Featuring classic silhouettes, these gowns are hand crafted with expert workmanship & high quality fabrics. KWH by KAREN WILLIS HOLMES: This collection captures the imagination of the modern bride.
