The Dress

Absolutely stunning wedding dress of your dreams!
Bought from Wilkins Bridal in Christchurch, original price $3600.
Matching veil included which was bought for $200 originally.

"A fresh take on the traditional strapless gown, this art-deco beaded wedding dress from Essense of Australia is as stunning as it is sparkling. With a scalloped, sweetheart neckline, the bodice of this Beaded Tulle and Regency Organza gown is heavily adorned with Diamante beading, and shimmers with every step that you take. The beaded lace continues down the body, creating patterns and showing off your curves before flaring out into a full, tulle skirt and train. The back of this gown zips up beneath crystal buttons."

Has been dry cleaned not long after being worn - no stains remain.

Only has lost a few beads off the back near the zip, and on one of the sides. Barely noticible unless you're looking for it!
A small part of the hem has been damaged slightly - more obvious when seen from underneath but fine from above, and hidden in amongst all the layers.

Dancing is definitely possible in this dress, I danced the night away!

Alterations

Originally a size 12 - I had the torso brought in slightly as my top half is about a size 10, and my hips are a size 12.
Torso taken in at the zip down the back.
