The Dress

This dress made me feel so elegant and beautiful on my wedding day, I couldn't have been happier with it. It is a fitted crepe dress, described as a mermaid by the designer but somewhere between that and a sheath really. It is so elegant and simple from the front with beautiful beadwork around the neck and arms. The drama can really be seen from the side and the back with the beautiful train and v-back with further beadwork. I had the train shortened a bit as when I was walking around the store, all the fabric was gathering in a long column. You therefore only get the full effect of it when it is fanned out by someone, but on the day it would have been dragging some way behind but without the impact. For me, it was a great decision as it still looked so beautiful with a shortened train but was much more manageable, which was brilliant when there is so much going on, you don't need something else to worry about! The dress was also incredibly comfortable and light, I could move around with ease and that allowed me to concentrate on what was a wonderful day. I am also tall (over 5ft9) and so this dress is still at its maximum length.
