The Dress

Designed for the bride that wants to make a serious statement, The Johanna Johnson Avedon Gown is double lined with heavy silk satin and finished with incredibly ornate beading work at the neck and back.

A piece that starred in Johanna’s 2014 “Muse” collection, The Avedon echoes the art deco elegance of the streets of New York City, taking inspiration from the decadence of the Chrysler Building through to the Radio City Music Hall’s embellished interior.

Johanna Johnson’s Alexandria-based business has been put in to liquidation, therefore her gowns will soon cease to be designed, making it harder to purchase one of these exquisite wedding dresses.

Some facts:

Fabric: Satin (extra added for train)
Silhouette: Sheath
Features: Beading (front and back with infinite details)
Alterations: Minor
Height of Bride: 176cms (very long dress - perfect for any bride to be as can be altered)
Approximate measurements: 82cm (breast) 68cm (waist) 98cm (hips) - but with room to take out.
Heel height: 120mm with 10mm platform
