The Story

I bought the dress from Still White this year, the previous owner purchased it brand new from The Bridal Atelier in Melbourne for RRP AU$3450 and I paid AU$1450 + AU$400 to re-hemmed and to fix a few details on the lower section. Additionally to this I paid AU$200 to make the slip fit my silhouette, the only alterations made were taking up the length (I am 162cm tall and wore 10cm heels) and adjusting around the waist (because I lost around 7kg weight), however the alterations can easily be reversed as the alterations were made using a fine thread and the fabric wasn't cut off. The dress has been professionally dry cleaned the day after the wedding.

The material is very forgiving and is so comfortable to wear, I received plenty of compliments about the dress. I truely believe that this dress should be worn by another lucky bride. It is such a classic, stunning and also a pretty unique wedding dress.
