Trunk Shows & EVENTS
Trunk Shows are where Halo & Wren hosts a full collection sent from one of our current or a new designer, allowing brides to try on gowns not normally stocked on the rails at H&W. Please use our online scheduler to book a bridal trial during a Trunk Show date to try on trunk show gowns (and the rest of the store).
BLOSSOM CODE
ALENA LEENA — BLOSSOM CODE TRUNK SHOW
2nd–12th October | Halo & Wren
For ten days only, Blossom Code by Alena Leena arrives at Halo & Wren.
A collection rooted in modern romance, Blossom Code plays with sculptural silhouettes, intricate florals, unexpected texture and Alena Leena’s signature approach to contemporary femininity. Think statement bridal, but beautifully considered — gowns that feel directional without trying too hard.
The trunk show is an opportunity to discover and try gowns from the Blossom Code collection that aren’t ordinarily available in our boutique, alongside our permanent Alena Leena edit.
And, exclusively during the trunk show, all Alena Leena gown purchases will receive 10% off.
2nd–12th October 2026
Halo & Wren, Hemel Hempstead Old Town
Appointments are limited. Book your bridal consultation to discover Blossom Code while it’s here.
