The Dress

Mira Zwillinger Messa

This Mira gown was one of my favorite things about my wedding day! The dress is made up of decadent layers of sheer tulle with an ethereal, delicate lace top layer that's accented by subtle sequins that catch the light just so. I tried on a number of Mira dresses in-boutique, but actually chose this one sight unseen because I felt it was the one—and I was right. It fits like a dream—like all Mira dresses, the boning makes it so so flattering. It has a sheer bodice, a low back, and a stunning, dramatic train that looks incredible going down the aisle.

I wore this for my Telluride mountain wedding in Colorado and loved the look of the floral lace against a mountain backdrop! It would truly be perfect for so many different settings—I could see a bride in it at a classic French chateau wedding, a Napa vineyard wedding, or even a glam New York City hotel wedding!

I am 5' 5", around 120 lbs, and wore 3.75" heels, so it could work for anyone 5' 8" and under depending on your heel height. I'm typically a true size 2. The dress also bustles beautifully and was comfortable for both our first dance and reception.
