The Dress

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS DRESS. Teddi was so comfortable to wear, even in the warm weather as we had a very hot day.

It was beautiful, elegant (we had a black tie wedding) and a little sexy.

I was an exact Kyha size 3 (I'm a standard AU size 6-8) when I ordered the dress and due to breastfeeding, I did have to get the bust taken in approx 4cm. My seamstress commented on how beautiful the fabric was to work with.

I loved this high leg split and had this altered as the split is quite high and when I walked you could see my underwear, particularly in wind so a slight adjustment was made here.

My arms are slim and I had my seamstress adjust the "sleeve" so that it wasn't as loose on my arm and when we did our first dance, I tucked the sleeve in so we could swim and lift with ease.

Kyha Description:
A perfect combination of volume and airiness, Teddi is made for the fashion-forward bride wanting a fresh take on taffeta. Teddi celebrates the unique texture of the fabrication through a draping detail over the structured bodice and in the full skirt. The crispness of the fabric is offset by Teddi's soft neckline, draping, asymmetric arm band and split in the skirt.

Alterations

- About 4cm taken in from the bust
- Hemmed to my height 165cm + 7cm heel
- The split lowered slightly
- The arm band / sleeve was taken in slightly so that it didn't appear too baggy on my arm
- Sorry for the non technical wording but the ribbons were added under the dress so the train could be tied up for the reception
- I had a wrist loop put in for the day but my seamstress advised to cut this off so that it didn't get caught in my heels and I trip.
