The Dress
Kelly Faetanini Cara Dress (2020 Amalfi Collection) custom altered by Kelly Faetanini to have the thinner and shapelier straps from her Thelma Dress (Marilyn Collection). Ordered in October 2020 and delivered in January 2021 for a July 2021 Cape Cod wedding at Wychmere Beach Club. Dress has been professionally dry cleaned and steamed and is in mint condition. I have the original dress tags. Spanish veil in matching ivory is also available.
Willing to meet serious potential buyers for try-on in either the Boston area or Harwich, Cape Cod area. Retail including tax for the dress was $3878 ($3400 for the Cara dress + $250 Custom Straps + $228 luxury sales tax) from the boutique Flair Boston.
I loved everything about this deep V front/V back dress. The inner neoprene lining was super comfortable, soft and secure (not thin/see through like some crepe or thin lace dresses). The soft lace and embroidery pattern on the top layer was incredibly striking and had a super subtle sparkle; it absolutely wowed on my wedding day. The neckline was probably my favorite aspect; I was so happy I had changed the straps to the Thelma straps; they showcased the collarbone area and left the perfect spot for an eye-catching necklace. The tastefully placed sheer lace side cutouts were an added bonus and really upped the unique factor of the dress. Everyone wanted to know where I had found it, and even better, I was able to comfortably dance the night away in it!
