The Dress

The Cara Gown is made from a luxurious heavy weight 100% silk satin. The top of the dress features a modern high neckline, with a deep V back and a fitted short sleeve. The twist front is created using a Japanese form of pattern making.

The top attaches to the skirt along the back waist to give the look of a top and skirt with the practicality of dress.

The skirt sits high on the waist and the cutout at front reveals only a slither of skin.

The centre front seam and a split that starts from just above the knee. There is little extra flare in the skirt that gives a beautiful flowing silhouette and leads to a 30cm train.

The beautiful lustre of the silk satin gives this relaxed wedding gown a luxury feel and look.

I purchased this gown from Bluebell Bridal in Melbourne in 2020 and wore this dress at my wedding on 25 February 2021. It is great condition, however has some minor signs of wear on the underside of the hem and also a slight mark on the train. It has been dry cleaned by Syndal’s dry cleaning in Armadale and is ready to go.

I usually wear a Size 12 for reference. The dress is marked as a size 13 to account for alterations. I am 171cm tall, and wore 6.5cm high heels with the dress. I had minor alteration to the front of the hemline, however it can be taken up if you are shorter, this would also get rid of the marks on the hemline and potentially the train.

RRP: $4995
Alterations: $635
Dry cleaning: $395
