The Dress

This dress is versatile because it can be worn with or without the lace jacket, offering two different looks for pictures. The materials are wrinkle resistant and is heavy enough to feel luxurious while light enough for comfort. I wore this dress for 4 hours in an elopement and picture session in Tuscany, Italy (no guests, just an officiant and photographer).

The lace overlay is a cream and the base underlay is a champagne color.

The lace jacket lace is the exact lace as the dress lace. There is eyelash style lace lining the jacket edges and the sweetheart neckline.

Because the dress and jacket offer so much detailed material, I used a simple halo veil. The price includes the veil unless you decline because you prefer your own veil.

Alterations

The size 8 dress was taken in slightly in the hips, waist, and length. The dress lists as a size 4 since wedding dresses run small and actually equate to a size 6-8. I wear a standard U.S. size 4 in most pant/dress. The measurements I specified above are my exact measurements wearing the dress. I am 5'6" without shoes and I wore a 2 inch wedge, with the dress perfectly overlaying my shoes in front. The dress does have bra inserts sewn in that can easily be removed (I am a small-mid B cup). I did not alter the jacket but would recommend that you do in case it fits a little loose (I wish I would have for my pictures!). I do have a large rib cage and wide waist, so others may need the dress altered further as I suggest a very fitted look in this dress.
The dress is heavy enough to feel decadent but not too heavy. I loved having the option of both looks, with or without the jacket!
