Something New: The Best Fashion Investments Newlywed Angela Koh Made for Her Vogue Wedding

Angela Koh’s wedding took place at the dreamy Buttermilk Falls Inn in Milton, New York, where she married Sammy Shubbar on August 13, 2022. And it was a fashion girl’s wedding through and through—with a custom Molly Goddard dress, Margiela Tabis, and a suit from The Row included!

Still, choosing her wardrobe for the big day and all the events surrounding it wasn’t a challenge for Koh, a fashion editor at T Magazine. In fact, she did it all without the typical Pinterest boards, even though part of her wished she saved images for tablescape references. “Researching and being decisive is part of my job, so it all went relatively quick,” she says. “My dress, I knew I wanted the moment I saw Molly Goddard release her bridal collection, which I ordered directly from the atelier.” In the midst of the pandemic, Koh was supposed to visit Molly Goddard’s atelier for a fitting in London but the Omicron surge threw a wrench in the plans. “We had to do a virtual fitting where my husband patiently took my measurements with the atelier’s guidance. It was quite cute,” she says.

When it came down to shopping the rest of her wedding wardrobe, Koh searched high and low for her must-haves. Her suit from The Row was a sample sale find, while her husband’s Dior Homme by Hedi Slimane Suit was sourced on eBay and she found her bridesmen’s Prada suits from the Prada outlet. “I’m always looking for a good deal, so my favorite place to shop, wedding wardrobe or not, is a sale,” she says. “I got my suit and a baby blue satin bag from The Row sample sale.” 

The finishing touch was something highly unique and extremely personal—a Korean hair accessory from Etsy: “My binyeo was for my traditional Korean hairstyle, an idea that sparked when seeing my Molly Goddard wedding dress. It had a similar silhouette to a Hanbok.”
