The Dress

Milla Nova - Aora

Ukrainian designer

Season: 2018 Once in The Palace / Chicago Campaign

Colour: Nude/Ivory

Marked EU 40 size (UK 14)

Beautiful dress, worn on my wedding in August from the latest collection. It is heavily laced with 3D flowers all over, back button up details..many unique layers of different kinds of fabric! I received so many compliments on my dress as it is truly a unique piece with so many details.

I am a regular size AU 8 and dress fits me comfortably, not too tight or loose. This dress would fit AU 6, 8 or 10.

I was recommended to buy EU 38 with my measurements, but decided on a size up as I was worried about the hips being too tight as it would have been easier to alter to smaller than larger.

My measurements:
Bust - 86cm / 34inch
Hips - 97cm / 38inch
Waist - 71cm / 28inch

Dress has been dry cleaned, with some minor dirt marks visible at the bottom of the dress (not noticeable in photos).

Please contact me for further questions or if you would like more photos.

Happy to ship worldwide and I will try my best to assist with keeping postage costs down.

Alterations

- minor alterations
- alterations to the hips (taken in slightly)
- alterations to the shoulder, taken up so the waistline sits is higher (European designer dresses tend to have a longer bodice)
- alterations to length has been adjusted to my height (I am 165cm tall and wore heels that were 10cm height)
- bustle added for the tail so it's easy to walk around for photos and for dancing
- Extra padding added to the bust, can be easily removed if not required.

If you are based in Sydney, the tailor I used would be able to re-adjust to fit you perfectly.
She did not take any shortcuts to cut the lace to adjust the length, she took it all out and sew it up higher (which was a lot of work), keeping all the lace details. She will be able to alter it shorter or longer if required.
