The Dress

This was a magical dress. Simple, but elegant, classic, and beautiful. It allowed me to be really playful with my accessories (veil, shoes). It was also incredibly comfortable--I tried a number of other dresses and the beads/embellishments were always bothersome, especially under the arms, but not this one. I wore it from 10am-1:00am the next day. I also really loved that it comes with detachable straps that I put on during my reception that 'switched up' my look without needing to buy a whole other dress.

I will be honest, I danced so much with that dress that there are a some stains on the bottom of the dress that probably require some additional cleaning in addition to the professional dry cleaning that I already had on the dress. If you are shorter than 5'2, you can hem the bottom a bit and it won't be visible AT ALL. If you decide to wear a cathedral veil like I did, you won't likely notice the stains, and it's not visible once you bustle it. Perfect dress for a classy lady looking for something beautiful but comfortable.

Here's the designer's description:
SIMPLE STRAPLESS COLUMN WEDDING DRESS WITH SIDE SLIT
Wrapped in luxe liquid crepe, this chic ivory column gown exudes clean simplicity and contemporary sophistication. The strapless neckline naturally unfolds into a pleated and draped bodice that accentuates the natural silhouette. In the back, fabric-covered buttons form a timeless row from the top of the bodice to the edge of its sweeping train. A minimalist sheath skirt glides across the form like liquid to part at the front in a sexy side slit. Style D3634 is everything a modern bride could dream of. This wedding gown is also available in plus sizes.

Alterations

It has a built-in bra (32C) that the seamstress sewed into the dress and honestly made my boobs look AMAZING day of. It also added a ton of support when I wore my dress strapless during the ceremony (I added the straps later). There's also already a bustle. Some alterations were taken in the body to fit my figure and shorten to fit my fight (but very little given how few scraps were cut off) and if helpful, my regular clothes sizes are:
Dresses: 4P/SP/2
Tops: 2P/XSP/0
Bottoms: 4P/SP
Jeans: 27 waist
Bra: 32C
