The Dress

MODERN SHEATH WEDDING DRESS WITH SHEER HALTER AND BONUS BUSTLE FOR TRAIN

An absolute statement piece, this fashion statement wedding dress from Essense of Australia is a work of art. A modern high-halter neckline features surprising sheerness and shimmer with floating organic florals and beading scattered throughout the bodice, and concentrated at the high collar creating a mock neck. Various floral motifs continue to fall throughout the slightly fitted skirt over the solid fabric, creating negative space for a fresh look. The organic details increase in scale as they reach around from the hem of the skirt toward the end of the elongated, sheer train for a dramatic bridal finish.

Fabrics: Lace and Tulle

Details: Clear Beading; Buttons

Worn a few hours at my wedding to the ceremony and dinner (photos attached); I had another dress/second look for the dance floor.

Receipts for the dress [removed], creation of a bustle at a high-end Georgetown tailor ($~900), and professional, green dry-cleaning ($260) included.

The custom-created bustle (offers the option to change the look and pin the train up for ease of movement) is shown in the third to last photo. I have a video of the bustle instructions if needed.

The dress (a size 6) was also hemmed and altered to fit my measurements (can be taken out):

I am 5' 6" and I wore 3" heels.

My measurements:
B - 32 (wedding dress size 2)
W - 24 (wedding dress size 2)
H - 36 (wedding dress size 6)

Beautiful memories in a beautiful dress that I hope to pass on to another lucky bride!
