The Dress
I couldn't have been happier with this gown. I was absolutely elated stepping into it on my wedding day, and had the very best, of the BEST kind of wedding days! I would love to hold onto it, but it is time to pass it on to another lucky bride.
The dress was purchased as a Standard Size 14, but altered inwards around the shoulders and hips to be more like a Size 12. When I was fitted for the gown I tried on a Size 12 which fitted really well, but because of my Bust, they ordered a 14. So after alterations, it is between a Size 12 to Size 14.
The Sia Gown is part of the Rue De Seine Wildheart collection. It has crochet bell sleeves which feel magnificent to wear. It has a delicate embroidery-on-mesh bodice, which is fitted around the body until below the hips (but still has room to move so you don't feel constricted on your wedding day). Scalloped edged crochet panels are attached to the bodice, which falls into a full skirt with the most beautiful lengthy crochet train.
Three hoops for the train (to be held up) have been added to the dress. This made the dress so easy to wear on the day.
The dress comes with a silk slip (with padded cups), which could be worn on its own.
I felt like a Bohemian Goddess in this dress, and found it to be a perfect combination between floaty and fitting - it hits all the right points on the figure, making you feel elegantly feminine, while still allowing movement and spirit.
One of the first things my husband said to me was how flattering and slimming the dress was on me. I certainly found that compared to many other dresses I tried on, this one was by far the most comfiest and flattering!
It has only been worn once, for about 9 hours. It is still however, second hand so it is not in perfect condition. There is slight fraying at the very bottom of the train, and there is also subtle grey specks in certain parts at the very bottom of the train. This is not very noticeable in terms of the whole dress itself. But for this reason I am selling the dress NZD $500 cheaper than other second hand Sia Gowns I have seen (in previous months) on this same site.
As the dress has been altered to fit my own body shape, it is likely you will also need alterations to fit the dress to your body. The dress has been professionally dry-cleaned. However, it is likely you will need to get the silk slip steamed.
Alterations
Re-fitted at the shoulders (taken up and inwards).
The back sits higher than on the models in the Rue De Siene website.
Taken in at the hips/sides until the knees.
Padded cups inserted into the silk slip.
