The Dress

From Rue De Seine: East is cut into a halter silhouette, which frames and flatters your shoulders beautifully. The bold detailed twist lace has sinuous curves that envelop the body at flattering angles and hug the figure beautifully. Drama is emphasized with a sienna lining and directional change of the lace. Full circle skirt flares out from low hip, which uses plush tassels to highlight the full skirt.

From Me: This dress was incredibly comfortable and incredibly light while being high quality, with the stretch silk under layer and stretch lace. I am pear-shaped and this dress hugged my curves in all the right places while emphasizing my waist. I still get compliments on my dress a year later, for its unusual design, the tasseled arm bands, nd romantic silhouette. It truly was my dream dress that "married" (pun intended) both my classic & bohemian sides.

I did minimal alterations. Simply added soft, thin cups to the inside and an American bustle that was beautifully done to follow the line of the fringe along the back. I did not change the length of the dress or restructure in any way. It is still a standard size.

Post-wedding: I sent the dress to be cleaned and preserved and my seamstress did replace a little bit of lace in the front which had come loose from dancing. I paid extra for the replacement trim from the Rue De Seine and upon inspection, I couldn't tell where she had replaced it. After that I had the dress preserved and it has been boxed up since last November.

I debated hard about parting with the gown as it was quite the investment and is just unbelievably stunning... but I too had searched for the same gown on Still White, hoping to find it more affordable. I am hoping that it may now be the dream dress for someone else as well :)

Let me know about any questions!

Peace, love, dream dresses,
Carly
