Founded in 2016 by Sofía Arribas and Saioa Goitia, Sophie et Voilà is a Spanish bridal and evening wear brand. With a background in architecture, the designer's classic silhouettes are created for contemporary women—and feature geometric cuts mixed with ethereal elegance. Every look is sewn by hand in her Madrid and Bilbao-based ateliers.
In 2021 Arribas and Goitia released their first coffee table book, featuring over 300 wedding dress sketches embodying past, present, and future collections. Titled, Nessun Dorma, meaning 'let no one sleep', the book is an ode to brides who triumphed past the restrictions placed in 2020. "It had to convey the anguish of the brides, of the moment, while simultaneously displaying the desire to impose the illusion over fear," notes the brand.

Sophie et Voilà Fall 2021
According to a statement released by the brand, "The ICON Collection breathes minimalism and non-fashion style, two concepts that 21st-century brides have made their own. Every year, we reissue some styles from our old collections giving them a new look, more contemporary styles, and more fashionable content, demonstrating that classic design is independent of trends and is capable of lasting in time. That, in addition to character, is sustainability. At Sophie et Voilà we never forget our commitment to the planet and that is why we do not discard any design, but rather we adapt it to new needs. Personality, consciousness, and timelessness are the three pillars on which we base this new ICONS capsule." Take a look below!
In accordance with our diversity pledge, it's our duty to note that at the time of publishing, this brand/designer did not include BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) in their Fall 2021 campaign imagery. We have since reached out to this brand/designer to encourage them to include BIPOC imagery in not only this season’s campaign but in future campaigns as well.
