The Dress

This was a Selena gown from the BESPOKE collection by Australian designer Karen Willis Holmes.

I got many compliments about how elegant and beautiful it was. I felt confident and comfortable in it. It would suit someone who wants a timeless look with modern elements.

It comes with a detachable train at the back (the train alone costs $999). The sleeves are also detachable and sewn from the same fabric as the skirt (The material was purchased from Karen Willis Holmes too). I can include them for free if you like.

The corset fabric is firm with no stains, and in immaculate condition. It is made out of Italian lace. The skirt is flowy and made out of layers of organza.

It is in "as new" condition and was professionally dry-cleaned immediately after the wedding. It has been stored since.

I am 165cm and wore it with 6cm heels. The back has laces. The cups are C size.

It was the perfect dress for me, and I would love another future bride to enjoy it as much as I did. Going back to the photos, I love it so much and am so glad I chose this dress for my special day.

Alterations

Minor alterations were done:
1. New hooks were sewn at the back for a more secure corset fit (the hooks can easily be removed or moved)
2. The length shortened slightly
