The Dress

From the designer: This plunging back wedding dress with pearl details by designer Martina Liana is an absolute showstopper! Bellagio crepe forms a very sleek and chic sheath silhouette that is embellished with laser-cut lace and sparkling Diamante and shiny pearl beading. Each element of this designer wedding dress adds to the drama. The sexy skirt features an incredible laser-cut lace hemline and delicate beading, which adds to the drama of the chapel length train. Thin lace and Diamante beaded straps come together at the low, open back. The plunging back is highlighted by illusion lace cutouts and pearl details. The back of this low back wedding dress zips up with ease under pearl beading.

Bustle to support the long train is all ready for you. The front was shortened a little so that you can see just the front of your beautiful wedding shoes as you walk. Removable cups have been sewn in.

From the Bride:

I absolutely loved this dress! My wedding was on the beach, there was no "trashing the dress" photoshoot, and then we had a reception indoors. It was a great universal dress that wasn't too hot. I bought it pre-worn but the dress is still in very good condition. It moves well and stays put.

The only alterations done before I got the dress was the bustle was added, cups were added and the front of the dress was hemmed. The only alterations I made was to have the original plastic buttons removed and replaced with matching satin buttons. I also had the satin buttons added all the way down to the start of the train. I have attached a picture of the new buttons up close.

There are some faded brown blemishes/discoloration on the very bottom when I bought it but it was and is hardly noticeable. It's on either side of the dress as the material starts getting longer just before the train starts. I assume its from people stepping on it. If you're short and plan on having the dress taken up, it will probably be removed. If not, no one noticed it when I wore it.

Alterations

The front was taken up to suit a girl 5'5-5'6 wearing 3-4" heels. A bustle was added. The original plastic buttons have been removed and satin buttons have been added going all the way down to the start of the train as I thought it made the dress look less cheap. Will send the plastic buttons with the dress if you want.
