The Dress

Beautiful gown bought from Astra Bridal in Wellington in January 2021, worn at my wedding in February 2021.

Very light, floaty & flowy dress so super comfortable to wear and not too hot at all. This is what sold the dress for me! It is a dream to wear! The lace on the bodice is covered in tiny clear sequins which gives a beautiful gentle sparkle as you move. I loved that there wasn't lace on the hem of this dress, the hem is just beautiful and feels lighter and more modern without any lace.

Only alteration was to add a wee hook at the back so that the train may be lifted up.
Many more photos available on request.

Dress is marked as size 18 but I'm a solid 20 on the top and 22 on the bottom and it fitted beautifully.

The corset back allows for the dress to be pulled in nice and firm which enhances the waist in a really amazing way! I didn't find that I got 'spill over' at the top of this dress (which is something I was worried about with a strapless dress), but the soft, scalloped lace edge really softened this and it wasn't an issue for me at all.
