The Dress

Mikado satin, wonderful thick fabric. Zip up closure with decorative buttons all the way down the back, and a built-in corset strap to make the bodice tighter; built- in cups as well so no need to wear a bra. This dress is considered a ball gown, but to make it less poofy I removed the crinoline layer underneath.

Very comfortable dress, the bustle is super easy, just one loop that you put over a clear button that is hiding between two other buttons.
It was professionally cleaned after the wedding but there are a couple spots at the bottom of the train that they couldn’t get out, likely from the pavement or people stepping on the dress. I will add photos of that or just ask me to send them.

This is a great “no fuss” type of dress, that you can add a belt to if you want a little more bling.

Best part of all, it’s got POCKETS! Perfect for your cell phone, lipstick, tissues!

Congratulations to you!

Alterations

This is Sincerity bridal dress # 44296, but I had the long sleeves removed to make it look like another Sincerity gown, # 44080. I also had it hemmed (I am 5’2” and wore 2 inch heels) and taken in about two inches at the waist and bust. It fits more like an EU size 20 now, street size 16. My bra size is 38 D, but the bust area seemed loose so if your bra size is bigger it may fit you even better! Save yourself the crazy alteration fees and get this dress!
