The Dress
As soon as I saw a photo of 'Honey' by Rembo Styling I knew it was the one! I love the sustainable ethos of the designer and that the dress was a lot more relaxed in style than others I had seen. The lace detail on the top is so beautiful, whilst being fresh and modern and I loved the flowing chiffon overlay skirt. I am petite and look young so wanted to wear a dress where I felt comfortable and free, rather than one where I looked like I was trying to be overly sophisticated or too 'dressed up'!. We got married on a farm, on a warm day, and I was so comfortable. As you'll read, I made quite a few alterations to the back, so that it was completely open, not good for anyone who wants to wear a proper bra (there are cups sewn into the front for shape and protection). If you love dancing like me, this is the dress! I twirled and danced all day. It was also really easy to dress it up during for the service (we got married in a church) with flowers and heels, then I wore platform trainers in the evening. There is a small heel shaped hole in the overlay bottom left, which would either be hidden or could be repaired. The skirt has a good train for those wanting to walk down an aisle, then the bustle at the back lifts it during the day which I loved. My worst nightmare was not being able to move freely but it was no problem at all. If I could wear it every day I would, but I hope it will go to a new home and be loved once again.
Alterations
Shortened from the original 'size 8' length. I am 5 ft 2 inches and wore 3 inch heels on the day. It was touching the ground with my shoes on and slightly on the long side for me. I also had the back completely opened up and bra cups stitched in. Perfect for a 32/34 B cup size. Finally, we added a bustle at the back and two on the sides, under the skirt (which you wouldn't have to use) to lift the back and sides of the dress up during the day.
