About the Dress

I am selling this beautiful Martina Liana dress (style 1137) which I wore to my wedding at the end of June 2022.

The colour way of the dress is ivory (lace) / honey (gown underneath) / porcelain (tulle), as shown in the photos.

I have had the dress dry cleaned - the video shows the dress in its current condition, after dry cleaning. The dress is in great condition, however, there is some very slight discolouration underneath the lace appliqués at the bottom of the dress (see final photo) - this cannot be seen when the dress is worn / the lace is facing the correct way.

This is the description of the dress from the Martina Liana website: Delicately beaded shoestring straps extend from the V-neckline into the wide open back, forming a small keyhole feature at the base. The V-sides complement the plunging neckline and sheer bodice, showered in delicate laces featuring a mix of vine-like and floral patterns. The relaxed A-line silhouette features layers of sequin and beaded tulle which lay closer to the figure, while a wide tulle overlay gradually widens toward the back—complete with carefully placed lace appliqués for rich dimension, stunning texture and a dramatic bridal finish.

Alterations

I bought this dress as a UK/AUS size 12 (US size 10). I had the dress altered closer to a UK size 10 (I normally wear a UK size 8). Most of the alterations were to bring in the bust and waist and I had the cups changed for smaller ones. I also got the length altered. I am 165cm (5'5) and wore 10cm heels with my dress. Finally, I had a bustle added at the back comprising five loops (as shown in the 3rd photo).

My measurements at my last dress fitting were: 85cm (bust)/67cm (waist)/90cm (hips).
