The Dress

This is an absolutely beautiful dress “Monte” bought from designer Chosen by Kyha. It is brand new never worn except for my fitting (excellent condition - no flaws). It is a size 3 from the designer (it wouldn’t let me choose size 3 in the selections above) and I am normally a street size 4 or S in US sizing. I simply had a change of heart and decided to wear a different dress on my wedding day.

The Monte dress is a modern ballgown made of luminous mikado (silk) fabric in a bright ivory color. It has a distinctive front slit, and a strapless, structured bodice with drape detail.

The first 2 pictures are from the designer website and the last picture is of me in the dress. I also included a video of the dress in real-time.

Alterations

I got alterations to match my size: bust 32, waist: 26, low hip: 36.5, and height with heels: 5’6”. I also added padded bra cups (32b), got the slit altered to be just lightly higher, and got a bustle added. They also steamed the dress. These alterations will save you hundreds of dollars if you are my size or smaller. I got these alterations done at one of the top alterations companies in Chicago, Ette the Wedding Tailor, and were a retail value of $595.
