My husband and I, like many couples, were affected by Covid three years in a row. Each time it would get close, we would need to once again, postpone. By August 2021, we decided to elope in Rarotonga. I wore a green dress! And so, the dress of my dreams couldn't be altered in time, and so I decided to keep it in storage, for the hope of an elopement party where I would have the opportunity to wear it. Once again, that plan fell short for us, and so I have decided to sell this beautiful gown to a new bride.

I am a curvy girl, and I thought wearing a mermaid would just not suit me, but the Nova is so beautifully structured, that any body type can slip right on into it. She's super light, and the blush tulle layers complement any skin tone. A little sparkle with delicate beading and a train to wow. A build in tan coloured bra to hold up the girls is something I asked for additional to be put in when being made.

No alterations have been made for my size or height, so it can be altered to suit your body type.

CHOSEN BY KYHA no longer makes these gowns, and so they really are one of a kind pieces.

I hope that this gown can find it's bride and make a lucky groom beam with joy as you walk down the aisle.
