Ella Gown Accessories: What to Wear

Quick answer

Choose accessories that echo the gown's ivory and pale gold palette and its nature-inspired motifs. Delicate pearl or gold jewelry, a simple veil, and neutral-toned shoes work best.

Decision Rules for Ella Gown Accessories

• Jewelry: Keep It Delicate: Opt for small drop earrings or a simple pendant necklace. Avoid chunky pieces that will tangle with the leaf border or silk flowers on the bodice. A thin gold chain or pearl studs are ideal.
• Veil: Simple and Lightweight: Choose a plain, single-layer veil in ivory or pale gold. Avoid heavily beaded or embroidered veils that will compete with the gown's hand-beading. A fingertip-length or cathedral veil works well. A simple veil lets the gown's details shine.
• Shoes: Neutral and Understated: Select shoes in nude, ivory, or pale gold. Avoid bright colors or heavy embellishments. A classic pump or sandal will keep the focus on the gown.
• Hair Accessories: Minimal or None: Because the gown has a keyhole back and a detailed neckline, skip elaborate headpieces. A small pearl or gold hairpin is enough if you want something. A simple updo or half-up style will show off the back detail. Let the gown's back be the accessory.

Product Spotlight

• Ella Gown: The Ella Gown is entirely hand-beaded in shades of ivory and pale gold, with branching leaves rendered in glass beads and faux pearls. This means your accessories should pick up the ivory and pale gold tones and avoid competing with the intricate leaf pattern.
