About the Dress

Selling my beautiful Catalina wedding dress by Karen Willis Holmes.

This gown is an absolute dream – elegant, timeless, and modern all at once. Designed in true KWH style, Catalina blends regal charm with a fresh, flattering silhouette that feels classic but still totally unique.

The strapless neckline features a subtle centre detail, and the asymmetric gathering across the bodice hugs in just the right places. The satin-finished fabric gives it a soft, luxurious feel, while the A-line skirt flows beautifully – with a front split that adds a touch of contemporary drama without taking away from the traditional vibe.

The back is equally stunning, with a classic button-up finish that feels so bridal and special. It’s a dress that made me feel confident, comfortable, and completely myself – and I hope it’ll do the same for someone else.

Let me know if you'd like more photos or details – happy to answer any questions!
