About the Dress

This is the Symon Dress by Netta BenShabu– A-line strapless sweetheart neckline gown with a bustier style bodice, delicate lace and light beading. https://weddingatelier.com/product/netta-benshabu-wedding-dress-a-line-strapless-sweetheart-neckline-sheer-bustier-style-bodice-deliacate-lace-light-beading-symon/ The lace is GORGEOUS with a beautiful long train I picked this dress because I loved the lace look of the Diana gown by the same designer but just couldn’t pull off the silhouette with my height and frame. This one I fell in love with instantly when I tried it on. I wore a cathedral veil and added some sleeves separately (not part of dress) Worn for a few hours and then professionally dry cleaned

Alterations

I added an additional lining so the front boob area was a bit more modest and less see through (it should be removable though by a seamstress!). The back is still the same see-through corset style Added some bustle thread loops that are very well hidden, if you want to bustle the dress for dancing Hemmed slightly for my height (5’6 with wedding heels) so I wouldn’t trip, but I kept it on the longer side because I loved the look As reference I’m 5’2, about 103 pounds, bra size 30-32, usually 0 and 00 in normal clothes, 24-25 jeans
