About the Dress

This gown was a dream come true, and I felt absolutely wonderful wearing it on my wedding day. The dress features a beautiful V-shaped neckline and an open back, with sheer mesh panels on the front and sides for both comfort and structure. The craftsmanship and quality of the fabric are immediately evident when wearing this gown. The most striking feature is the airy tulle skirt adorned with hand-stitched 3D floral embellishments, making it a one-of-a-kind piece.

The Savin website describes the dress as: One of our signature pieces, this gown strikes a balance between classic design and modern aspirations of our brides. Fitted crepe top with a V-shaped neckline is a perfect combination to this airy 3D-floral embroidered tulle skirt.

I had the dress altered to fit me and I'm a size 8/10 and 5'6" in height and I wore heels that were 3.5 inches on the day (not wearing my heels in the cover photo) and the dress just brushed the floor. I also had a button and loop added when altered so you can have the train lifted at the back which makes dancing and moving around easier. The original dress is also a self-tie ribbon at the back but this has been altered to be a clasp.

The retail cost of the Alika dress direct from House of Savin with customisations is £3,860 including alterations.

I'm based in London and would ideally want to sell to someone who is interested in trying the dress on in person as I want them to feel as comfortable in the dress as I did!
