The Dress

Adara Gown with Clara Armbands by Rue de Seine

Worn once for my October 2021 wedding and LOVED it. Just came back from drycleaning and it doesn't show any significant flaws or signs of wear. There are only a few loose tiny threads that were also present when I received the dress.

- Comes with bustle + dancing loop
- Potentially open for try ons if you live in Southern California. I live in San Diego, CA.
- Paid over $450 for alterations as well (mostly to shorten)

Dress Size - 10UK

More of my sizing details, in inches:
Dress bra cup size: C (I am a 32D/DD and this fit me well)
Bust: 33.5"
Under Bust: 28"
Natural Waist: 25.5"
High Hip: 33"
Low Hip: 37"

Clara armbands have never been altered, I had plenty of room on the arms to take them in but decided not to because they have a sticky liner inside to help hold up.

Adara is a romantic, light and playful bustier gown. Carefully placed seams and design lines ensure the most flattering effect on the figure. The boned bodice ensures ample support, so you can comfortably dance the night away. Skirt remains fluid with lightweight lace, as it drapes elegantly from the hip allowing for generous flare and train.

Adara can be pared back and contemporary without the armbands (armbands are not sewn into the dress), or dramatic and vibrant with the crochet sleeve addition.

Alterations

Added a bustle and Dancing Loop. Shortened the hem, height ok for someone as tall as 5'7". Taken in slightly in the bust and waist.
