The ball gown wedding dress is the choice of those who imagine their entrance as a dramatic, emotional and unforgettable moment.

In ball gown wedding dresses the bodice plays a fundamental role. It can be built like a true tailored corset, enhanced by boning and architectural cuts, or be softer and more delicate. Sweetheart necklines, off-the-shoulder lines, straight necklines, bare shoulders and plunging necklines completely change the balance of the silhouette and the character of the gown.
The fabric also determines the final effect. Tulle creates ethereal, romantic volumes; lace adds depth and preciousness; organza and silk bring lightness, while mikado, duchesse and structured fabrics give life to modern ball gown wedding dresses, sculptural and with great presence.
At the Le Fate Milano atelier we select different interpretations of this silhouette through our collections and the creations of Italian and international designers chosen for quality, design and tailored craftsmanship.
The ball gown does not necessarily have to be fairy-tale in the most traditional sense of the word. A statement volume built through a pure fabric, an essential corset or an architectural detail can turn it into an extremely contemporary design.
From the lace ball gown wedding dress to mikado designs, from large tulle skirts to more structured, minimalist gowns, our selection is created to offer different interpretations of a timeless silhouette, helping every bride find the right balance between proportions, personality, location and wedding style.
