The Dress

The Rosa Clara Abal dress is an all over lace gown which has a fit and flare silhouette with v-neck shape at front and back. This dress plays with the illusion of a magnificent neckline, where crystal tulle and floral appliqués blend into the neckline both in the front and the back creating a tattoo effect. The bodice is fitted at the waist, leading to an elegant mermaid skirt with a soft train, and thread and gemstone appliqués. The hem is adorned with a large lace scallop which flutes around the train. The back bodice is especially stunning with the sheer lace panel detail and buttons

I purchased this dress from Always and Forever in the city and wore it to my wedding in December. The dress was taken up and altered to fit my measurements but could be altered again to suit different body shapes. I also had part of the bottom layer removed to make the dress lighter. It was a dream to wear!

The dress has been professionally dry cleaned ($408) and is ready to be worn by another bride!

Feel free to contact me with any questions, or if you would like to see more photos. Welcome to try on too.
