About the Dress

Are you stuck between the sexy, fitted sheath dress... and the flowy, fairytale ballgown of dreams??

Girl, I've got you covered. Why choose either one when you can have them both? ...And without the double price tag!

With this stunning sheath dress and tulle overskirt dream team you can float down the aisle in your breathtaking "princess for a day" gown you always wanted, then come the evening reception you're free to dance the night away in your super lightweight, fitted number without having to lug around all that material or get changed!

...And what an amazing surprise for your S/O and wedding guests when you whip the overskirt off mid way through the drinks reception, entering your wedding breakfast not only with a new last name but a whole new look too!!

The main dress its self is a real showstopper and an original Emily Bridalwear (Sheffield) design. For me comfort was key even on my wedding day, and this dress definitely was that. No sharp beading, no annoying straps slipping off, no itchy material and no awkwark boning stabbing you in the belly. Some of the fabulous features of this duo include...

- Stunning, beaded spaghetti straps with clear, non slip lining (I had this added so as not to cut into my shoulders or slip off)
- Intricate lace bodice with beading which also blends onto the top of the detachable skirt to create a seamless join when worn together. Your guests won't even realise it's two separate pieces, mine didn't!
- Button detail running all the way down the back - don't worry these are just for show, you don't need to fasten each one!
- Does it have a train? I hear you ask... It does indeed and what a beauty. It's what sold me on this dress in all honesty. Just to die for and the photos don't even do it justice.
- The overskirt is made from lightweight tulle material with lace around the top, matching the bodice and train of the main dress.
- The overskirt can be stepped into or passed overhead and attaches to the dress by way of little metal hook and eyes sewn into both pieces, expertly placed so as not noticeable to the eye. There are also press studs around the edge of the train on the dress to secure the skirt in place. This is so both elements move as one when walking.

This dress really is one of a kind and comes with it's very own little surprise... it fit like a glove and I honestly felt the most confident I have ever felt in my life. I was told "you should be the one wearing the dress, not have the dress wearing you" and although looking at this dress it is absolutely incredible, for me it was more about how it made me feel wearing it. I got the best of both worlds with this dress and she me feel like the very best version of myself on my wedding day.

She is excellent condition for a preloved dress, with no staining or damage. There are a few loose threads to the train but nothing that couldn't be fixed with a needle and thread and a bit of TLC. She's been professionally cleaned at my own cost and now deserves a new home. She will not disappoint!
