Bo & Luca Launches Luxury Sister Line T E M P L E By Bo & Luca
T E M P L E was established in 2017 by the creators of Bo & Luca. Through Founder and Creative Director Shannon Pittman’s interest in photography, architecture and contemporary culture, an alternative approach to bridal wear has been created. T E M P L E reflects a sense of effortless, modern femininity that takes cues from the bold, iconic heroines of decades past.
After 4 years designing luxury bridal wear, the creators of Bo & Luca have engineered a concentrated assortment of 10 youthful, minimalist and price-conscious gowns. The collection was previewed at 2017 New York Bridal Week.

Elsa gown.
Focused on fine fabrications of raw silk, intricate craftsmanship of hand-beaded techniques, and a contemporary fit, T E M P L E maintains luxury quality and design aesthetics that are accessible to women globally.
Amos gown.
Despite growing interest by brides internationally for Bo & Luca, there was always one thing Shannon Pittman Creative Director and Founder, was concerned with. “It broke my heart... when women would email us enquiring about a gown only to find they could not afford it.” Shannon spent a year working with her team in Mumbai, India to develop a range of gowns made with the same raw silk fabrication and hand-beaded attention to detail as Bo & Luca, but at more affordable prices.
Aria gown.
The designs that take cues from the boldness of the 70s but maintain the elegance and intricacy of an heirloom wedding gown. Like Bo & Luca’s signature line, T E M P L E remains effortless and relaxed, without boning, cinching or ties of traditional bridal wear. The gowns are as comfortable to wear as they are beautiful.
Primrose gown.
T E M P L E by Bo & Luca brings a new energy to the bridal industry. The brand is noticeably raw, confident and playful. The designs are unstructured and challenge typical wedding gowns, beckoning a new age in bridal wear. With flowing styles and loose silhouettes, even ladies who are self-proclaimed “non-brides” might reconsider.
