The Dress

This beautiful fitted lace wedding dress with scalloped train is perfect in any season! I am still in love with this dress and would wear it everyday if I could! But alas, I hope I don't need it again!

The dress is VERY flattering, especially to those with an hourglass shape. With other dresses, I was worried about my tummy poking out as I ate and drank all day, but this dress hugs in all the right places to keep you looking your best. The front area provides plenty of support, so you don't need a bra or extra help keeping your chest perky. I was jumping around on the dance floor and never once felt self conscious or worried about the dress shifting.

As an added bonus - its very comfortable! I put the dress on around 9am and wore it through the after-after party that wrapped up around 4am with no complaints! It is easy to pick up and go to the bathroom in. Unlike those hilarious pictures of 6 bridesmaids holding the floofy dress up for the bride in the restroom, I didn't need any help and was able to hold it myself!

I added a custom American bustle on the back for after the ceremony. It is 5 easy button/loops - my mom and sister were able to do it in a few minutes (one held the train up, one found and looped the buttons). I had it professionally cleaned shortly after the wedding, and there aren't any stains or spots on it. It looks brand new!

Here is the official description from the designer's site:

"A plunging V-neckline is the focal point of the bodice, surrounded by artfully-placed lace that shapes the body. Narrow cutouts adorn either side of the bodice, while the richly-beaded lace continues curving through the bodice, extending into a soft skirt. The lace-trimmed scoop back is highlighted with slight ruching on the back of the bodice while a dramatic train with lace scallop finishes the look perfectly. The back of this fitted lace wedding dress with scalloped train zips up beneath crystal buttons."

Alterations

Custom fitted to measurements (took in the waist a bit). Added American bustle on the back (5 easy buttons with loops).
