The Dress

This is the Monroe dress from the 2019 Stephanie Allin Love Stories collection.

I bought this beautiful dress from the Anne Priscilla in Glasgow and loved every moment of wearing it.
Having hunted for a dress that wasn't 'lacy' or 'too plain' this was the perfect answer with delicate wisteria detailing across the shoulders and down the body.
It's made of high quality crepe that fits and flatters but doesn't cling.
I received so many compliments about this dress and would love for it to be worn again. I think sustainability is really important and it would make me sad for the dress to sit in a wardrobe.

Stephanie Allin says:
Monroe is one of our 2019 show stoppers. With it’s incredible silhouette and its soft crepe fabric, what’s not to love?! The pretty petal neckline detail adds a real softness and femininity to the straight across design and the train adds drama to an already memorable dress!

Details:
I am 5'4 and I wore with 3 1/2" heels on the day.
It was made to fit so about a UK10-12 in high street sizing.
The dress is boned, I didn’t need cups and went without a bra but these could be easily added by a seamstress if you need. There is 2 inches of material on the chest that would enable the bust size to be altered to 32 inches by moving the buttons.

I have had this dress professionally dry cleaned - there are a couple of marks to the hem that haven't come out this time. These could be easily removed if the hem/ train is altered.

I am happy to send photos and answer any questions. Also if you would like to try the dress on and live nearby.
