Brands Like 16Arlington: 7 Labels for Feathers, Sequins and Going-Out Dressing

The closest alternatives to 16Arlington that Coveti stocks are Magda Butrym, The Attico, David Koma, Taller Marmo, Alessandra Rich, Galvan London and Rotate. 16Arlington is the London feather-and-sequin house, most of it made in the United Kingdom. The seven below overlap with it on going-out dressing, and each takes the idea somewhere 16Arlington does not.

1. Magda Butrym

The nearest match in spirit. Warsaw-based, feminine, built on rosettes, corsetry and slip dresses, with feather and crystal trims of its own. It sits a step above 16Arlington on price. Choose Magda Butrym for florals and a softer line; choose 16Arlington for feathers on a sharper cut.

2. The Attico

Milan’s after-dark label, from Gilda Ambrosio and Giorgia Tordini: sequin minis, crystal fringe, high slits. It sits in the same price tier. The Attico is louder and more Italian; 16Arlington is the London version with better tailoring inside.

3. David Koma

London’s body-conscious eveningwear specialist, all sculpted bodices, cut-outs and crystal. It sits a step above 16Arlington on price. Koma is tighter and more architectural; 16Arlington is softer and more textural.

4. Taller Marmo

The other feather house at Coveti, Italian and built on the kaftan, the column and the ostrich-trimmed hem. It sits in the same price tier. Taller Marmo is fluid and resort-minded; 16Arlington is short, sharp and nocturnal.

5. Alessandra Rich

London too, and the most ladylike of the group: bows, pearls, polka dots, crystal-buttoned minis. It sits a step above 16Arlington on price. Rich dresses a princess; 16Arlington dresses a night out.

6. Galvan London

Clean, long and sequinned, the London label for a column gown without feathers. It sits a step below 16Arlington on price. The quieter alternative to the Electra gown.

7. Rotate Birger Christensen

The Copenhagen party label and the affordable way into the look: sequin minis and feather trims at contemporary prices. Less construction, a fraction of the price.

How they compare on price

In three tiers. Rotate and Galvan London sit below 16Arlington. The Attico and Taller Marmo sit beside it. Alessandra Rich, Magda Butrym and David Koma sit above it. Within 16Arlington the spread is wide, from a sequin top to a fully embellished gown, so the tier tells you where a house starts rather than what a given piece costs. The price guide explains what moves the price; for a head-to-head, the 16Arlington vs Magda Butrym vs The Attico comparison.

Four more worth a look

Self-Portrait is the London label for lace and embellishment, the nearest thing to the satin-and-lace Clio set at a lower price tier. Rebecca Vallance, Australian, does feather-trimmed minis and sequin columns. Solace London makes clean, sculpted eveningwear without embellishment, for the person who likes the 16Arlington cut but not the plumes. Christopher Esber, from Sydney, is the draped and cut-out alternative, and the one to try if 16Arlington feels too dressed.

What 16Arlington does that the others do not

Three things. First, it treats feathers as trim on a tailored garment rather than as the garment itself: the Hodi and Maika hems, the Michelle cuffs, the split on the Wye midi. Second, it weaves sequins into a fabric and cuts columns from it, so the Electra and Sior read as satin from across a room. Third, its Spring/Summer 2026 satin-and-lace pieces, the Clio top, the Filipa cardigan and the Ricci trouser, are daywear, which none of the eveningwear houses above attempt. Most of the range is also made in the United Kingdom, with most of the rest in Portugal.

Which should you choose

For feathers, 16Arlington first, then Taller Marmo for length and Rotate for budget. For sequins, 16Arlington, The Attico and Galvan London in that order of volume. For a wedding, Magda Butrym and Alessandra Rich. For a red carpet, David Koma and 16Arlington. If you want the 16Arlington look itself at a lower price, the dupes and alternatives guide is honest about what exists.
