The Dress

Absolutely stunning Karen Willis Holmes Celine gown from KWH collection. I brought this dress over from Australia and then had alterations made in London.

Exquisite beading detail and flowing material. Photographs beautifully and I loved wearing it! The dress is label size 8, but has been altered (I wear size 8-10). Comes with belt. The train is beautiful to have out for the ceremony to show the detailing off and has an easy button bustle for dancing later!

The silk underlay has a few lose threads/scuffing at the bottom but you won’t see these under the sequin layer. There are a couple of loose sequins if you were to look really closely at the dress (I also found a few before my wedding as the dress is so delicate) which can just be sewn back into place without any trouble. The dress comes with its own spare beading kit. Professionally dry cleaned and otherwise in good condition.

Viewings welcome!

Alterations

I have had this dress altered with bra/cups which makes the line of the dress much smoother. The back V neckline has been deepened and it has had the hem taken up. I am 170cm and wore flats with the dress. The sleeves have also been taken up as I didn’t want a slouchy/gathered effect, they are still long and come to the wrist.

I had the dress had to be taken in, but now truer to a street size 8.
