About the Dress

“Sunset” by Romanova Atelier purchased from Bonsoire bridal boutique.

Such a beautiful dress I felt amazing in it and had so many compliments. A great shape for a curvy hourglass figure like myself, I wanted to highlight my waist but cover the tops of my arms without feeling like I was covering up and this did exactly that. It’s got a built in corset which is insanely good and the backs of the arms drape so beautifully. The train is full and dramatic but without being too poofy. Fabric is organza, it’s so light and airy- great for a destination wedding like I had.

I’m a 12-14 uk size and 5ft2. It’s been taken in slightly around the waist and shortened for my height with 3 inch heels. All done by the in-house boutique seamstress.

I haven’t had it cleaned yet but I will have it professionally done and will send detailed pictures, if I get interest for selling it. At the moment I can’t see any permanent damage or anything that I don’t think would come out from a professional clean.

Paid £1600 for it brand new and hoping for around £1000 but I am open to offers.
