The Dress

Pearl Culture NZ bridal two piece in champagne gold Indian silk dupion ( shot silk)

I felt amazing in this New Zealand designed and made two piece bridal outfit by Pearl. The silk feels incredible and catches the light beautifully.

The top is a Cupid blouse halter neck one size with wraparound ties to back and neck that can be tied in a few different ways. See website for more information; https://www.pearlculture.co.nz/cupid-blouse-hibiscus
Top and ties are both double layered silk. Top is in mint condition.
Skirt is the Giselle full skirt as seen here

The skirt is slightly longer at the back so whilst not quite a train has that effect and has pockets, which I loved!
The skirt also has hidden buttons to allow for it to be raised a little for dancing.

I am 1.68m/5foot 6inches tall and it could have been a tad shorter for ease of movement.
