The Dress

Brand new!! I bought this for my March 2020 wedding in Italy but our trip was cancelled due to the closure of Italy. We already completed our legal ceremony and won't be doing another so, sadly, this beautiful dress is no longer needed.

This is an aline dress with a corset back, which is very flattering. The gown has a beaded neckline, cross band bodice and beaded embellishments throughout the skirt and chapel length train. The dress is absolutely stunning and will make you feel like a queen!

The original dress is strapless but I had sheer straps added using the shall that came with the dress. The dress was beautiful before adding the straps but is stunning with them added. For me, it was too much skin showing on top without the straps but these can be easily removed. The seamstress did an amazing job matching the pattern of the cross band on the bodice.

The only other alteration completed was an adjustment to bust line to pull it in towards the chest. Without the adjustment, I was looking straight down the inside front of my dress. They ran a thread along the top of the bust line and pulled to gather it slightly so that it pulls in towards you. Both alterations can be easily undone to return the dress to it's original state.

Also included is the bag of extra beading in case you need it. It also came with a set of thin straps that can be added to the dress.

The first three pictures show the shoulder straps added. Pictures 5 and 6 are pictures of me in the dress at the bridal salon before the sheer straps were added. The last two photos are the stock photos so you can zoom in on the dress details.
