The Dress

"Crafted from a honeycomb lace reminiscent of Alexander McQueen’s legendary designs, Colette takes the shape of a fit and flare V-neckline gown. A perfect diamond shaped cutout is framed across the back, with scalloped beaded panels creating a unique element of detail. For brides torn between going bohemian or going glamorous on their wedding day, Colette effectively combines both." - description by Amare Couture by Casablanca.

Casablanca dresses come in custom sizes - ordered 36" bust, 31" waist, 40" hips. I had it taken in 2" around the waist/hips which can be let back out. The dress was ordered ivory on ivory with silver beading detail on bodice. I had the designer add an additional layer of fabric underneath the lace of sheer/ivory mesh with clear sequins to add a sparkle with movement. The dress has a 1 point bustle.(The last photo of the model is showing ivory on light nude).

The dress has been professionally cleaned and stored in a smoke-free home.

Alterations

The straps were taken up about 1". The waist and hips were taken in 2" total and can be let out. This dress was never hemmed and has a gorgeous scalloped lace bottom.
