The Dress
I ordered the 'Bobby' gown from Karen Willis Holmes at the Armadale store in Melbourne in March 2018 for my December 2018 wedding.
"The Bobby" gown is a stunning combination of patterned lattice lace over a fitted silhouette, a low v-neck and back and finished with a sexy front split. The gown comes with a fine waist tie and gold clasp closure which you can wear at the front or back of your gown.
"The Bobby" is a statement dress for the ladies wanting something classic, yet timeless without the fuss. It is extremely light and low maintenance for those who do not want the fuss of layers and a long train. The gown features a front, middle split above the knee which is framed by the lattice lace, this made me feel that extra bit sexy, yet relaxed. The straps sitting slightly on the shoulder to emphasize the gorgeous v-neckline bodice. The gown features a stunning godet train with the lace detailing. It has a light stretch in the material, however it is a tight, slim fit.
I knew the 'Bobby' gown was the dress for me as soon as I tried it on. The lace is quite unique as I had not seen anything like it before. I received so many compliments on the detail. I bustled the dress after the photos which allowed me to move around freely and dance the night away.
The dress is in perfect condition. I have had the dress professionally dry cleaned and it looks brand new. There are no stains, tears or markings in the dress. Receipt will be supplied upon request.
The dress is a tight fit and would fit a size 8. Please enquire for measurements.

Alterations
The gown was hemmed for my height (165cm) and I wore 10 cm heels.
Bust enhancers were sewn into the gown. Please note these are not for size but to provide shape as you are unable to wear a bra with the gown.
The straps were shortened to create a breast lift in the gown and to ensure they sat nicely. I am about a 12C/D depending on the bra.
I lowered the back of the dress to create a more open back. The original style was a modest low back however I opted to lower it approximately another 2 inches. The style is still considered low back - not backless.
