The Dress

It is hard to part with this gorgeous dress - it made me feel like a goddess in my wedding day! As much as I'd love to keep it, I know that it would just hang in the closet. I got married very recently and I would love for this dress to make another bride feel as happy as it made me feel.

I didn't have a dream dress until I saw this dress - luxurious, classic and elegant (without being too much!). My dress wasn't heavy and shimmered beautifully against outdoor sun-rays and indoor lights.

This beautiful dress is a sweetheart cut A-line ball gown embellished with fine embroidered lace. The tail is designed in two layers, separated by voluminous ruffled tulle.

What I love the most about this is dress is that it also has a surprise effect at the back, hidden buttons to clip the upper layer of the tail into a big bow, giving it a different styling option for outdoors and dances. Please check all the photo and the video too to see this special effect, giving the dress two styling options from the back.

I'm size 12 UK and I wore the attached semi-corset on the tightest in all the uploaded photos and video. The elastic strap has 6 different hooks to widen and tighten as needed.

It also has a padded bust, so you don't have to wear a bra with this dress.

In the professional photos, I'm wearing the dress with a petticoat (jupon) while I'm not wearing any in the photos and video I took with my phone just to give you an idea how it would look like in both cases. Note: The veil and petticoat (jupon) are not included.

In addition to the photos, please also check the video for more close up details.

Alterations

It was originally a plunge cut with sheer straps and a deep V cut, but asked to cut the straps and connect the V, ending in an elegant classic design of sweetheart cut. It is stunning - as if this is how it was first designed!

It was originally size 46 European and was altered to fit my size of 40 European, which is the equivalent of 12 UK.

I also asked to attach a semi-corset, a strap with 6 hooks to adjust as needed. In addition, I asked for extra boning and bust padding.
