The Dress

Romantic and extremely comfortable to wear dress, that made me feel beautiful. I felt fabulous the first time I tried this dress on and it only got better when I was fitted in my actual gown. I was going for a romantic, ethereal look and this dress delivered. I couldn’t stop smiling after putting it on and I loved seeing the awe-struck look on my husband’s face when he first saw me. Truly a magical moment. The dress has an cream silk bodice and skirt, which is very soft next to the skin, and an overlay of sheer netting with intricate floral beadwork and embroidery. The dress also has a defined waist with clear bead trim. The silk skirt and overlay have a center slit that comes up just above the knees, which makes the dress extremely easy to walk in and fabulous for twirling on the dance floor. The dress also has a small train that shows beautifully in pictures, but also allows for ease of movement. There is a 4-button bustle, which was super easy to secure, but I only used it when the dancing started.

Alterations

The skirt was hemmed to accommodate my height with shoes, which was 5 foot 8.5 inches in the heels I wore. I also had breast cups sewn in to ensure effective coverage but those can be easily removed.
