The Dress

I've never felt so comfortable in a dress as I did in this one on my wedding day. The detailing is precise and made me feel the fanciest I've ever felt. The fit was perfect for me, and still let me twirl during our first dance and then Get Low on the dancefloor later on. My husband's review at our first look: Hot damn!

Dress was made with split sizing of 2-4-6 top-to-bottom, and was taken in to fit me. Originally purchased for base price of $3600 from Flair Bridal in Boston, MA. Real buttons go down to the lower back, then a zipper closure. Slip shorts served me well for avoiding visible lines and not peeking out at all through the sheer back. The dress was very easy to lightly steam day-of, with wrinkles coming out very easily.

Little, if any, wear from the day of; no food spills or armpit stains. A very small amount of graying on the edge of the train from trailing behind during photos. It has not been cleaned since the wedding at the end of July.
