The Dress

Celine Dress by KWH Bridal, LUXE Collection.

Gown:
- Designed & finished in Australia and hand beaded in India

- Ivory 

- Fully lined with stretch lining

- Comes with beaded belt

- Back zip closure


The dress has a little weight due to the beading which makes it fall nicely on your body and flatter any curve.

History of the dress:

The beautiful bride I purchased this from had also purchased it BRAND NEW on Still White June of 2022, still having the label tag attached and the original storage bag from KWH as the original owner never wore it. *Currently KWH store bag is not included*

The bride I purchased it from wore it for a few hours at a small wedding with no dancing. It came in perfect condition.

I have worn the dress for my wedding in April of 2024 for a total of 7 hours which includes getting ready and first look photos. I did dance in the dress but it has since been taken to a dry cleaner that specializes in wedding dresses. They did a great job!

This dress has been lovingly worn in Chile and in Portland, Oregon at Mt. Hood. I would love to see it go to a great home for the next gorgeous bride-to-be!

Comfort level:

I honestly couldn’t imagine a more comfortable dress to get married in! I felt like I could still move completely naturally and unrestrained!

Condition:

It has been worn twice, altered twice, and has one very small sequin in the front of the dress that needs to be re-attached. I will include extra beads and sequins. Other than that, the dress looks new.

I have attached a photo of the added bustle and the sequin in the front of the dress (near the bottom of the dress) that needs reattaching.

Alterations

1) Hemming at the bottom to bring the front of the dress up just above my toes.
2) Taken in from its original size of a US 6 to fit a US 4.
3) Added a French bustle (three ribbons to tie underneath the dress) and an American bustle (one sewn hook on the outside of the dress to keep the train up.
