L'Arca Barcelona - Vestidos de novia y moda vintage en Barcelona

I can’t say enough good things about my experiences at L’Arca. It is truly a treasure chest and Nina and the team of experienced and professional women who work there are a dream. I was quite overwhelmed shopping abroad for a veil to compliment my non-traditional dress but on my first visit Nina pulled out a gorgeous embroidered veil that matched perfectly. She was always kind, patient and professional, never pushy, while I took my time deciding on my final look. I’m so happy I took her advice!! I even found the perfect pin to gift my groom on our wedding day. Even if you aren’t a bride, I recommend a trip to L’Arca - you are guaranteed to find something extra special!

I went to the store bc it looked very pretty from the outside and it did not disappoint, they have a great selection of vintage gowns and kimonos. Not the typical clothing you see in regular vintage places. And most importantly for me no “vintage store” smell. I bought an antique brooch that I wear everyday and a hand carved hair clip which is my favorite item

I got married last year, but even a year later I remember how much Larca Barcelona helped me and what fantastic customer service I received! Thank you so much for all your help, the veil was even more beautiful than I could've imagined ☺️

I spent countless hours trying to find a perfect dress. Somehow I found L’Arca and there was one dress in particular on their website that I couldn’t resist. I was extremely nervous to order a dress online without seeing it in person and especially with no return policy, but I decided to risk it. Nina has been really amazing with communication. Even before I ordered she shared additional photos, gave me recommendations about the size, sent pictures of the fabric so I could understand the color. She reassured me that the dress will fit (i sent measurements) and will be beautiful. About 6 weeks later I was notified that my dress was departing Barcelona and it arrived in New York within just few days. The dress fits perfectly, the lace is so delicate. Nina even included a little handwritten note for me. Brides, I know how scary it is to order THE dress online, but L’Arca team has been incredible. Support real craft and quality ❤️

This is a unique place. Fabrics and laces are very delicate (their silks and laces are beautiful and vintage), you can adapt existing wedding dresses as you wish to make it the dress of your dreams, and all details are executed perfectly and by hand which gives the dress an extra layer of gracefulness… It is like having a dress tailored for you but 70 years ago and without having to start from a drawing. And to add to this, Nina and her sister are the sweetest. They carefully listen to your opinion and orient you, everything is under control from A to Z. I would marry again only to have a dress done there ;)

I first fell in love with L'arca when I visited in 2018 and wear a piece of jewelry I purchased there daily. I returned in 2023 to find my wedding dress and fell in love with two of their dresses that were both timeless, classic, and romantic. Nina was so helpful in walking me through their collection and provided a sketch of a custom dress that would combine elements of both of the dresses I loved. Whether for a wedding dress or unique vintage pieces, L'arca is always on my must visit list for anyone in Barcelona

I’m so happy with my dress. The ordering process was so simple, Nina took good care of me and had great communication the whole time. The shipping was quick too. The quality of the dress, made to my measurements, is fabulous. Thank you!!!

I live in the United States and ended up working with l'Arca for my wedding dress after falling in love with their work via Pinterest. I am so glad and thankful I went with my heart because it turned out better than I imagined. Nina was very helpful throughout the whole process and made me feel at ease. It is definitely unconventional to custom make your dress via email without any in-person fittings but turns out the dress fits me like a glove. They are simply true professionals with a beautiful eye and incredible craftsmanship. I cannot wait to wear my dreamy dress on my wedding day, it is so light and dainty.
