The Dress

Rue de Seine Ivy dress from their Nomadic love collection

Size: 10

Material: 100% french lace (Off white) and 100% silk slip (nude)

I wore this beautiful dress on my Wedding day in Berlin, Germany in July and couldn't have been happier with it.
It was so light and comfortable to wear on the day, which was something really important to me when I was choosing which gown to wear!

The dress is an off white lace and nude slip. At one point I was also contemplating an ivory slip and this also looked great under the lace, so could be an option if you wanted to just buy another slip to go under.
One of the nicest features of this dress is the high/low scalloped hemline. It was perfect for me as I'm short, it was nice to be able to show my shoes a little, which I think was more flattering.
I also wore a bridal belt in rose gold jewels that complimented the dress with rose gold shoes and accessories that fit perfectly for my look. I felt like it added a subtle sparkle that was missing for me.

Alterations

I had a few alterations made to the dress from its original state. I had the straps of the slip shortened so I could lift the back of the slip higher and that meant I could wear a strapless bra. I also had darts put into the slip to give the slip shape in the bust area.
I had the waist line on the lace lifted a cm, so I could have it sit on my waistline.
I am 160cm with a DD cup.
As I altered the dress to suit me, I understand this might not suit everybody, so I definitely welcome you to try it on.
