The Dress

As described by Rosa Clara, this is the perfect combination of sexy and contemporary with a touch of romance. This gown is designed to impress and believe me walking down the aisle it did it's job. It has a beautiful flattering beaded V-neckline with a stunning back.

The front is absolutely gorgeous with a beautiful low but still modest neckline. Each bead you can see has been carefully placed to create a gorgeous pattern on the front which absolutely sparkles in the sun and under the lighting of your reception.

The low back is a beautiful feature and with the flowing nature of the train, this dress coupled with a long veil makes any bride feel special!

There are 5 bustles on the back which allow for hooking it up and easy dancing at your reception. Dancing is a must for me and I did plenty so rest assured despite it's size you can still have a good night!

Freshly dry cleaned this dress is available for sale now. The sale includes a mermaid style satin hoop (cost an extra $200 above retail) which is what allowed me to move freely on the day.

For any superstitious brides out there.... we are beyond happily married and our wedding was an absolute ball - the best day of our lives so this dress has a lot of good energy! :)

This dress is part of the 2019 Collection:

Alterations

Alterations included removal of half a layer of tulle, allowing a more flowing look (there are still 5.5 layers). Shortening to suitable length factoring in 3 inch heels. Bringing the bust and waist in. The bead pattern was removed with alterations, but rest assured it was replaced to recreate the original look so no impact there. Alterations cost an additional $1000 (on top of retail price), so if this is a good fit for you would be a great choice to minimise additional alteration costs on a new dress.
