The Dress

Project Bridal - Vivienne Dress, bought in Paris, France.

Looking for something that breaks the mold? You've found it. This dress caught my eye with its one-of-a-kind material – something I'd never seen before (check out the detailed image for proof). In a sea of trends and lookalike designs, I was determined to find something truly distinctive. And this dress delivered.

Crafted from a fabric so light it feels like a whisper, wearing it was a dream. Though parting with it isn't easy, as a committed minimalist, I'm ready to pass it on to someone who'll cherish it as much as I have.

My search for a gown was simple: I wanted modern elegance with a touch of "wow" factor, minus any discomfort. And let me tell you, this dress exceeded all expectations. The moment I slipped into it, tears welled up – a reaction I never anticipated, but one that affirmed I'd found "the one."

Here's why this dress is a perfect choice:

Effortless care & easy to travel: I traversed the globe for my wedding, and this dress was the perfect fuss-free choice. Feather-light and wrinkle-resistant, it sailed through multiple flights as my carry-on. Upon arrival, a quick steam of the silk lining (though hardly necessary) restored it to pristine perfection – no wrinkles, no fuss.

Universal Flattery: With its forgiving fit, this dress is a breeze to wear. Aside from the chest area, which adjusts easily to your size, there's no need to fret about changing body shapes or dieting for the big day. It's a silhouette that welcomes all, ensuring every bride feels effortlessly beautiful.

Picture-Perfect Brilliance: When it comes to photography, this dress shines – quite literally. Its unique texture and light-catching properties create a mesmerizing interplay of shadows and highlights, resulting in stunning, dimension-rich images. Even our photographer marveled at its ability to captivate the lens.

Fit:
Please note that measurements were only taken for the bust, waist, and height during my fitting; hip measurements were not relevant for my order. Your hip measurement doesn't need to match mine, but it's included here to provide sizing context.

This dress offers unparalleled comfort and weightlessness – you'll almost forget you're wearing it! With no fuss involved, slipping into it is effortless, allowing you to fully enjoy your special day. As mentioned earlier, sizing concerns are minimal as the dress conforms to your chest, ribcage, and bust, while the rest gently drapes in relaxed elegance thanks to the silk lining. You can relax knowing that any worries about your body's appearance will be concealed, allowing the dress to accentuate your best features.

Condition:
Worn only on the day and night of the wedding, the dress remains in excellent condition. It has been professionally dry cleaned, leaving it free of any stains. If you require additional photos or details, please don't hesitate to ask.

Alterations

Originally designed with delicate spaghetti straps, I requested off-the-shoulder tulle sleeves that elegantly drape like "wings." While I received the dress with the original straps intact (and they are included in the purchase), I found it difficult to choose between the two options as both exuded elegance and modernity. Now, the choice is yours! A skilled seamstress can effortlessly make the switch for you. You can observe the contrast between the two options in the photos from the website and the showroom.
