On February 10, 2024, the historic walls of Hanzas Perons in Riga came alive with the energy of modern elegance and creative reinvention as the Līgavām.lv Fashion Celebration took center stage. Widely recognized as one of Latvia’s most anticipated wedding and fashion events, the celebration gathered together the country’s most forward-thinking bridal designers, stylists, industry professionals, and soon-to-be-wed couples seeking inspiration that goes beyond tradition.

Among the standout participants was Novaliss, the boutique fashion label founded by designer Laura Anspoka, known for her ethereal vision and intuitive design language. Novaliss brought a fresh and emotionally resonant presence to the runway — a reminder that a wedding garment can be more than ceremonial; it can be deeply personal, expressive, and poetic.

With dimmed lights, ambient music, and a sense of reverence, the audience was introduced to silhouettes that felt like movement captured mid-dream. Crafted from luxurious, natural fabrics and finished entirely by hand, the Novaliss pieces flowed with theatrical softness yet carried an undeniable strength. The designs received special attention for their adaptability — many of the garments are one-of-a-kind, customisable, and wearable well beyond the wedding day.

Rather than showcasing garments that conformed to bridal fashion norms, Novaliss invited attendees into a world where the individual takes center stage. The designs were inclusive, boundary-pushing, and openly emotional — offering something not only for brides, but also for grooms, attendants, and guests with a flair for the artistic and a love for quality.

Throughout the evening, the Novaliss booth and team drew in curious brides, stylists, and editors alike, engaging them in thoughtful conversations about slow fashion, garment meaning, and the value of intuitive design. For many, it wasn’t just a fashion show — it was a creative experience that lingered in the memory long after the lights faded.

The Līgavām.lv Fashion Celebration was not only a showcase of trends, but a statement about the future of weddings in Latvia and beyond. Novaliss’s participation underscored the growing desire for clothing that resonates with personal identity, sustainability, and emotion — and that, ultimately, is what made their presence unforgettable.
