About the Dress

My dream wedding dress. I couldn't have felt better on my wedding day, this dress was beyond perfection. The fit was impeccable. A corset but so comfortable.

I changed into another dress after dinner that was better for dancing (so I wore the dress for around 6 hours).

The dress has been dry cleaned at Jeeves of London in Hong Kong who holds a Royal Warrant for Dry Cleaning services to HRH Prince of Wales and his family - the utmost care for this work of art.

ABOUT THE DRESS
The Galaxy Cape is a new interpretation of the Galaxy dress, which was originally created for the red carpet, featuring a cinched waist and draped neckline inspired by the classic Vivienne Westwood Ball Tie gown. The gown is created in pearl white FSC-certified crepe satin, with a contrasting silk georgette drape across the décolletage, certified as organic, and 18th-century Watteau style train for added drama.

This dress is available in crepe satin with a georgette cape certified as organic. The crepe satin comprises 73% acetate and 27% viscose, both certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). This guarantees wood fibres used in fabrics we source come from FSC™ certified forests that have been audited by a third-party on their environmental, social and economic standards. We also partner with Canopy to support their goal of protecting the world’s forests by working to eliminate Ancient and Endangered Forests from wood fibre sourcing for fabrics and packaging.

Alterations

The dress was altered slightly to widen the upper bust area. The tailor I used, in Hong Kong, was recommended by a luxury bridal store who uses this same woman for their own Vivienne Westwood Bridal Dress alterations. So, I went in with confidence and she absolutely followed through. The upper back area, on either side of the zip has had a small 'v' of fabric added to make it slightly wider. She used the exact same Vivienne Westwood fabric as she has offcuts from previous alterations. The shape of the addition follows the natural silhouette of the dress. A 100% unnoticeable addition, I was thrilled with her work. Regardless, the cape covers this area! The new measurements match those I have noted on this page.
