Galia Lahav Bespoke
For the woman who arrives with a vision. Bespoke begins with a blank page. A collaboration between the bride and the atelier, where every detail from silhouette to fabric is imagined exclusively for her. One woman. One creation. One of one.
For the woman who chooses, then makes it her own. Couture begins with a design from the house, then evolves through curated personalization. Every modification preserves the integrity of the original vision while becoming uniquely hers.
For the woman who walks in, and simply knows. The collection represents each design exactly as envisioned by the house. Balanced in line, proportion, and craftsmanship, complete as it is.
For the woman who lives in Galia Lahav. Ready to Wear extends the house beyond the wedding day, dressing women for the moments that shape their lives long after the ceremony ends.
The Galia Lahav collection, formerly known as GALA, ranges from $6,000 to $9,000 USD. Galia Lahav Couture ranges from $9,000 to $15,000 USD. Bespoke begins at $15,000 USD, with pricing varying based on the design, materials and level of customization.
As part of Galia Lahav's evolving brand architecture, the bridal line formerly known as GALA is now presented under the Galia Lahav name. Guided by the Discover philosophy, the collection remains true to the spirit that brides have loved for years, defined by contemporary glamour, effortless sophistication, and exceptional craftsmanship. While the name has changed, the essence of the collection remains unchanged, now as an integral part of the Galia Lahav House. For additional informations see here.
We recommend starting your gown journey at least six months before your wedding to allow plenty of time for production, fittings, and alterations. That said, if your special day is fast approaching, we’ll do everything possible to accommodate you. Please contact us right away at mailto:gl_team@galialahav.com.
Don’t worry, you have options! Upon request, certain stores can acquire your gown for YOU. However, this is store-specific, please reach out to gl_team@galialahav.com to inquire.
Finding your wedding dress starts with understanding how you want to feel, not just how you want to look. Think about your personal style, your wedding setting, and the details that make you feel most confident. From there, explore silhouettes, fabrics, and design elements that reflect your personality rather than following trends.
If you're not sure where to begin, these guides can help:
- Choosing the Right Wedding Dress Silhouette - Learn how different silhouettes complement your shape and help you find the style that feels most like you.
- Customizing Your Wedding Dress - Discover the ways you can personalize a gown to create a look that feels uniquely yours.
A couture wedding gown is defined by exceptional craftsmanship, artistry, and attention to detail. Every detail, from the pattern-making and construction to the embroidery and finishing, is carefully executed to create a gown that is both technically flawless and uniquely beautiful.
At Galia Lahav, every couture gown is made to measure in our atelier using luxurious fabrics, hand-applied embellishments, and signature corsetry designed to sculpt and support. It’s this combination of expert craftsmanship, premium materials, and personalized construction that transforms a gown into a true couture creation. Learn more: What Makes a Gown Couture?

A trunk show is a limited-time event where we present the newest bridal collections before it becomes available in boutiques. Brides are invited to try on, and order gowns directly from the runway, often with the opportunity to enjoy exclusive offers or early access to new designs. To learn more see here.
Your dress is highly delicate and can be damaged easily. If you don’t have a local professional you can trust, we suggest the following:
- Dip your dress in lukewarm water with a mild detergent like Woolite and Vanish Oxi White/Kalia (the one for colored laundry) or a dash of mild shampoo. No rubbing or swirling!
- Hang to dry naturally. Do not squeeze out excess water.
- When dry, gently use a professional steamer or iron.
- Once clean and dry, keep your dress in a fabric cover away from direct sunlight and even moonlight, especially silk.
If your dress is Couture or GALA and has a necklace or beaded embellishment, these must be removed before cleaning. Contact us and we’ll walk you through the princess.
If your dress is appliqued, beaded, embellished or has an illusion back, don’t pull, pin, hang it from a hanger, or heat it.
Please remember never to dry clean it! Your dress will thank you.
