Hayley Paige SS21- all you need to know!
We have waited a long while to see the Hayley Paige SS21 collection, and it did not disappoint!
This collection is entitled ‘Reckless Optimism’ which is Hayley’s words means
“….leaning in to disciplined gratitude and reckless optimism; knowing no matter what the circumstances that courage, kindness and creativity will prevail.” (@misshayleypaige)
And we happen to feel this selection of 11 bodacious gowns has returned Hayley to what she does best! It is full of all the things we love about Hayley Paige, sparkle, custom fabrics, ruffled skirts and a playful take on bridal wear.
No matter what style you are looking for, there will be a gown that will make you the Queen you deserve to be!
If you are looking for SLEEVES
There is more than the normal ratio of sleeved gowns in this collection, which is meeting what brides are asking us for every day in the boutique. Here’s our top 3!

Dalton

Crafted from a luxury, all over Palermo embroidery, this A-line gown evokes pure luxury! The long sleeves are balanced with a deep-V neckline and open keyhole back. If you are looking for Hayley’s twist on a classic lace gown, this is it!
Wrigley
Both youthful and playful, this ivory embroidered lace and tulle ballgown will melt many of your hearts! With its illusion sleeves, curved V-neckline and full illusion back, it leave you feeling more covered than some other gowns, while showing off your beautiful figure!
Rarity
Arguably the Queen of the collection! This fairy tale beaded and embroidered tulle ball gown with its high neck and full tulle skirt brings the drama! Also available in Ivory and with a lower, scoop neckline. Don’t you just love the blush though?!
Rarity……just check out the back!
If you are looking for SPARKLE
If you know us and our brand, you know we are always looking for sparkle! We dare you not to fall in love with these 3, we already have!

Radley

So, we aren’t supposed to have favourites, but this is mine. Hayley’s custom ‘Nightshine’ sparkle embroidered fabric makes this gown unlike any other! And with it’s deep sweetheart neckline and detachable dream-catcher sleeves, it is also bringing some of the top bridal trends from the US to our country!
It’s totally O.K. if I just buy this for lazy Sundays around the house, right??
Frankie
So maybe Radley’s ballgown silhouette is not for you…then choose Frankie! Crafted from the same ‘Nightshine’ sparkle fabric, this fit and flare gown will get you standing out from the crowd!
And, if you are thinking strapless isn’t for you, then add some straps on! It’s one of the most common changes we make to gowns and it is relatively simple!

Hermione
If you are a Hayley Paige fangirl, like us, then you will be familiar with the Lauren gown. We like to think of Hermione as the sister gown to Lauren.
Shown in Wingardium Rose colour, with a beaded tulle ball gown skirt, this gown has it all! The floral beaded embroidery and rhinestone trim bring the sparkle in bucket loads. And feminine details, like the illusion side panels and cascading tulle skirt will make this one to keep an eye on!
If you are looking for LACE
Thanks to the Duchess of Cambridge, and her 2011 bridal gown, lace is still one of the top trends in bridal wear….even almost 10 years later! Let’s see what Hayley Paige has created for all the lave lovers out there…

Brydie

Ok, so this ‘lace’ is embroidered…but it creates the same effect! With an on-trend spaghetti strap, and fashion forward crisscross side cut outs, the skin on show in the bodice is more than balanced by the cascading tulle skirt! And with sparkly details throughout, I think this gown will appeal to lots of Hayley Paige fans out there!
Monet
If we could summarise all the trends we are currently being asked for, Monet would be it! All over lace, off the should straps and a feminine silhouette will make this gown a winner!
Calvin

O.K. so this gown is technically embroidered too….but would you have noticed if I hadn’t told you? We are loving the cut of this gown. With it’s figuring hugging form, beautiful sleeves and contoured skirt, we think this gown is the ultimate Winter wedding dress! And yes, there is the glitter tulle under the lace to add some festive sparkle!
If you are looking for FLOATY SKIRTS
Floaty skirts are creeping in to bridal wear! Gone are the days when brides want structured corsets, comfort is key! So maybe these will take your fancy!
Rhodes
Again, if you are a Hayley Paige fangirl, you will be familiar with Banksy…this is her fit and flare sister. We love this silhouette and the dainty details just highlight a woman’s femininity. The additions of the full net skirt soften the flare of this skirt, which I think lots of brides will love! And I hear on the grapevine a matching veil may be on it’s way too!
Holden
Crafted in the floatiest of floaty fabrics, the chiffon skirt on this gown would make it perfect for a destination wedding. And with the unusual lattice pearl embroidered bodice, not only is this gown one of a kind, but will glimmer in the hot sunshine! (Left below: Rhodes, Right below: Holden)
