About the Dress

I received so many compliments on my gown! This gown definitely embodies a timeless and classic look. There aren't any details on the gown, but its elegance speaks for itself. If you want a form-fitting gown that will show off those curves, this is the gown for YOU! I wanted something that was simple, yet giving a touch of extra-ness and that's what the bottom of the mermaid gown gave! It's very dramatic, but so beautiful and giving that WOWzer effect. I'm typically a 12 in dresses, but the bridal gown was a higher size to allow room for alterations.

Also, this gown is very thick and durable. I recently had 2 children and it hides any imperfections that you may have. I'm "busty" as well, and I didn't even need a bra/cups/or tape. My seamstress was very pleased by the material quality and how well the gown was constructed.

I've never felt so beautiful in a garment until wearing my wedding gown. I hate to see it go, but I would love for someone else to experience the same joy that I had wearing it.
