The Dress

I bought this dress brand new in February 2018 and used it for my wedding on May 19, 2018. Even though it is strapless, it's got a great structure, and I didn't have to keep pulling it up, as is sometimes the case with strapless dresses. Also, even though it was very structured, It was easy to sit down and move around in. In case you aren't able to tell in the pictures, the dress is covered in a delicate lace material that also has tiny jewels, which gives the dress a nice sparkle in the sunlight (although certainly not over the top, in my opinion!) The train is very long, as you can see. There are several layers to the dress, so it was quite difficult finding someone who was able to create a bustle for the dress. However, I was able to find a tailor that created a beautiful, u-shaped bustle, which allowed me to dance around during the reception. That cost an extra $600 to create, but in the end, I was very pleased with it! I went to several wedding dress stores, and this was the most elegant dress out there! I hope one of you ladies out there will be able to enjoy this dress as much as I did :)

As mentioned above, I had a bustle added. Since the train is so long and heavier than your average wedding dress, my tailor created a u-shaped bustle using small clear buttons that are invisible when your train is down, but then pins up beautifully when you need to be able to dance during the reception. There are also two white buttons missing in the back that came off during our wedding. However, these should be easy to replace, since they're pretty generic looking. There are no stains whatsoever on the dress. There is some "grey" underneath the train from dragging across the floor, which the dry cleaner wasn't able to get out completely. However, when you have the dress on, no one can see this.
