The Dress

The stunning 'Alvin' gown was originally part of Rime Arodaky's 2019 'Til Dance Do Us Part' collection, and it now available in her Iconics Collection. It is crafted from tulle embroidered with dainty buds and fluid crepe that skims your figure. It has a low back and fastens with a row of covered buttons at the back of the skirt.

The dress is equal parts elegant and sexy- the tiny cap sleeves; the high waist; the sheer, bud embroidered tulle bodice and train; the boat neck; the low back; the covered buttons... it made me feel like i was shining all day!

I immediately fell in love with this dress when i first spotted it, and even traveled to Barcelona to try it on. The Alvin dress is very comfortable, and has a sewn-in train loop to ensure you can dance the night away. Since the wedding, i still have friends asking for the designer and name of the dress :)Now, I truly hope i can make someone else equally happy with it.

The dress is hand-made in Rime's Paris atelier. The dress is amazing for tall ladies (i'm 1.80), but can also easily be altered to any (shorter) size. I'm happy to share the original receipt.
I got the dress properly dry cleaned straight after the wedding and they managed to get it fully white again. On the left hand side, there is a minor fix of the fabric (around the armpit) to avoid a small tear.

Alterations

Slightly taken in at the hips & below the bust to ensure a smooth line. With tulle train.
