The Dress

**Please note that this is from the Spring 2014 Vera Wang Collection, not the White by Vera Wang line sold by David's Bridal. Purchased from Saks Jandel in Chevy Chase, MD**

I tried on close to 100 dresses before I found the Mira gown from the Vera Wang Spring 2014 collection (AKA my "dream" dress): not too structured; modern yet classic elements; unique; elegant; light (It was a muggy 80 degrees on our wedding day yet the dress felt airy); and amazing attention to detail, from the different types of silk (faille, French tulle, organza) to the sheer wispy layer of tulle overlay on the skirt, to the bodice stitching and a skin-revealing cutout thinly veiled with flesh-colored illusion tulle. Although Vera Wang describes this as a mermaid gown, it fits more like trumpet/fit-in-flare. I absolutely LOVED wearing this gown, and put it to the ultimate test of dancing all night; I know any bride will love wearing this gown!!

Vera Wang Description: Light ivory strapless gown with silk faille trapunto stitched bodice, nude tulle sheer back panel, and silk satin faced organza. A few subtle, elegant details elevate Mira into a vision of precision—the curve of the neckline mirroring the curved outline of the hip; a geometric cutout in the back (filled in with nude tulle; i.e., not your bare back); the mermaid/trumpet skirt as a nearly two-dimensional plane of crisp organza. Mira is a very modern gown, yet with a simplicity that makes her timeless. The corseted, strapless bodice done in silk faille gives a lot of structure on top, with textural trapunto top stitching along the bones in the front, and in the waistband in the back. The skirt is a continuous cut of crisp satin organza—seamless except for a side zipper—all veiled with the thinnest, wispiest layer of French tulle overlay. With no frothy layers, or appliqués of any kind, Mira is the minimalist’s dream. And yet, the sensual play of architectural lines gives the dress such an understated, classic sophistication that will thrill the romantic bride, too.

CLEANING AND PRESERVING: by J. Scheer & Co. in New York, NY. Elaborate cleaning and preserving process & 50-year warranty: http://jscheer.com/process/. Gown is currently stored in J. Scheer wedding-gown preservation box, incl. archival materials & tissue.

ALTERATIONS: I wear a street size 0 for dresses, but the retailer recommended a 4 for the gown. I should have gone with the 2 because the 4 was too large; the dress had to be taken in (waist, hips, etc.), and is equivalent to a 2 wedding dress size now. The top has four easily removable pads sewn in the bust (I am an A/B, 32, and the dress is built for a B/C, 34+). The hem was raised (I am 5'5" and wore 3 1/2" heels).

MY MEASUREMENTS: Bust: 32, Hips: 35, Waist: 24, Height w/shoes: 5' 8 1/2"
