Elbeth Gillis: Georgia - A Fairytale Wedding Dress

Magical touches:

- Hidden pockets for your special-day essentials (like a lippy & tissues)
- Can be customised with dramatic bow-sleeves or a large kimono bow

My experience as a real bride
As a camera-shy bride, I found this dress to be not just beautiful, but also comforting. The pockets were an unexpected sanctuary, giving me something to do with my hands during photos when I felt a bit awkward. The moment I tried on this dress, I was moved to tears. The fabric is even more exquisite in person, and the buttons at the back were talk of the day.

See the dress in action:
I've included 8 photos showcasing the dress from my wedding day (maximum I'm allowed to upload). You'll see me with my husband and bridesmaids, as well as detailed shots of the front, back, and special features of the gown. For the full magical effect, don't miss the shortened wedding video I've uploaded. It captures the dress in motion and truly shows how it comes to life on the big day. The movement of the fabric is just amazing - can't quite explain how sturdy and stunning the Japanese silk is!

Condition:
- Professionally dry cleaned and ready for its next adventure.
- Comes with original Elbeth Gillis garment bag and sturdy hanger.
- The dress is in beautiful condition overall, with only a few minor marks on the exterior hem and some on the interior hem from natural wear during the day. These are very subtle and not noticeable when worn. I can provide a video of the dress to serious buyers upon request.

Alterations

I was fortunate to be a perfect bridal size for this gown.
No major alterations like widening/tightening the waist were needed. The hemming was minimal, just enough to achieve the perfect length for my height and heels.
