The Dress

I am still in love with this stunning, perfect condition Rue De Seine, Luca Gown, worn once (October 2018) and professionally dry cleaned.

The detailed beading and fringe trim throughout this dress is absolutely amazing. So comfortable, slimming and easy to get around in.

From website: Delicate embroidery and a fine soft mesh, give the Luca gown an ethereal and elegant aesthetic. Beading and fringe trim throughout embroidery keep the gown youthful and unique. Form fitted silhouette to low hip, form fitting sleeves. Full skirt, medium train, boat neck, low back with fringing detail. Shell – beaded embroidered Nylon Tulle, Cotton Trim and glass beads - size 14 Lining – Silk / Spandex.

The slip underneath is made of silk and spandex so there is a really good amount of stretch.

The dress itself has a little bit of stretch to it.

I’m 165cm and I wore 3.5” heel with the dress, but there is a lot of scope for shortening if required.

Measurements in cm:
Bust: 94
Waist: 88
Hips: 104

Alterations

I had the slip altered to fall to around 4 inches above my knee, but this could be altered to a shorter style as seen in the photo from the Rue de Seine website, or made longer again. A little button has also been added to the slip to enable the beautiful train to be pinned up like a bustle at the back. There is also a loop so you can hold the train up by your wrist.
