Heist Tights at Marisa Abela’s Wedding
A Return to Brighton Roots
Marisa Abela’s Wedding at Firle Place
In the early weeks of September 2025, Marisa Abela and Jamie Bogyo were married at Firle Place in East Sussex. Returning to her Brighton roots, the ceremony was as much about heritage as it was about artistry. It was an intimate gathering of industry friends, family, and loved ones.
Featured in Vogue, the wedding has already been celebrated for its refined aesthetic. At the heart of the day’s chosen style was one subtle detail that made all the difference: Heist white tights, quietly yet powerfully elevating the elegance of every bridesmaid.

The Bridesmaids’ Modern Wedding Style
Marisa’s friend and celebrity stylist, Aimee Croysdill, curated the bridesmaids’ look with an eye for modern luxury. The choice of The Floral Lace and The Sixty in Vintage Ivory was deliberate. The lace offered delicate texture, the colour-blocked Sixty bringing crisp structure and contrast. Paired with sculptural mini dresses, the tights transformed what might have been a conventional formal look into something fresh, modern, and beautifully balanced.
The Colour-Block Effect of The Sixty
How Heist Tights Transformed the Look
What could have been uniform simplicity became a canvas of contrast. The clean lines of The Sixty created visual interest against the sculpted forms of Emilia Wickstead’s dresses. With defining legs adding a surprising edge, while the vintage ivory softened the boldness with a classic bridal palette.
The Intricacy of The Floral Lace
Meanwhile, the lace-patterned tights introduced femininity and detail. They echoed the organic feels of the bouquets, the delicate blooms, and the textile elements across décor. In the refinement of the lace, there was playfulness and texture without overstatement.
Dressed in monochrome white, the bridesmaids honoured the bridal aesthetic, yet the uniforms did not overshadow. The Vintage Ivory tights kept in-theme with the party, allowing the bride’s dress to stand apart while still rooted in elegance and tone.
From the setting, with Firle Place’s rolling lawns and historic architecture, to the flowers, the cut of dresses, and choice of footwear, everything whispered modern luxury. The Heist tights, with their sculpting fit and colour-rich finish, fit right into that narrative - showing that innovation can live in small places (like hosiery). It is, after all, the tiny details that contribute to the whole aesthetic.

Why Heist Tights Belong at Modern Weddings
Heist has built its reputation on craftsmanship, fit, and versatility. Whether worn for red carpets or romantic ceremonies, the tights are designed to do more than cover a leg. They accentuate shape, add texture, and polish the overall look.
Versatile, weather-proof, and elegantly refined: Heist tights bridge the gap between high fashion and functional comfort. At Marisa Abela’s wedding, they were not just an accessory but an integral part of the bridal party’s luxury styling.
Proof that even the smallest detail - a touch of lace, the play of light across fabric - can redefine modern wedding elegance.
