The Dress

This stunning Cinderella style gown took my breath away with its elaborate hand-embroidered designs and crystal beadwork studding the fitted bodice. The boning in the bodice is firm but flexible, providing ample structure for hours of wear. The tulle skirt is quite full and can be worn with a hoop skirt underneath to provide a truly princess-like quality or can be worn without one to create an effervescent look. More stunning embroidery is found down the chapel length train and trailing around the base of the gown. The dropped waistline, soft sweetheart neckline and gathers at the skirt add to the delicate beauty of this truly gorgeous gown. This dress falls exactly at floor length when worn with a hoop skirt and bride's height of 5'7 in shoes. Without the hoop skirt, the dress accommodates a height of roughly 5'9 in shoes. One fault exists in the entire dress - a small split in the fifth layer of tulle in the back of the gown. It is entirely invisible from the outside. The dress is otherwise exceptional. The dress was only worn for the ceremony, as I had a second dress for the reception.

Alterations

This dress was altered from a size 10 wedding dress size to a street size 4. There is ample room in the bust and hips for a petite but curvy figure.
