The Dress

Dany Tabet Emerge Tempeste Designer Dress. Custom hand beading, blush cream with tulle, and of course a long train. Stunner of a dress. It sparkles and shimmers beyond what even photos can show as it's woven into the fabric of the dress. This dress is gorgeous in person and of high quality. Has a fabric lining that is comfortable and gives the illusion of a transparent dress, along with boning to create the hourglass silhouette. There's also an elastic band inside to help keep the strapless dress in place. Very comfortable to wear.

I purchased it from a local wedding dress boutique. It is dry-cleaned and in great condition.

For alterations, I had it done by a professional with 30+ years of experience since the dress was so intricate and the design so well-balanced. It was shortened for my height, taken in around the waist, sweetheart neckline enhanced, and push-up cups added for some extra sexiness and lift. A bustle was added with careful planning so it still holds its great shape. We kept all of the extra fabric and beading so it could be altered easily again for anyone close to my measurements. Cups can also be removed.

About the collection from the designer's website:

"Inspired by the captivating effects of mermaids and the allure of the sea, EMERGE beguiles us with elegance and mystique in the unprecedented Dany Tabet fashion."

"EMERGE has sauntered from the ocean bearing treasures of never seen before custom hand embroidery and beading patterns. Fluid lines and timeless shapes are accented with statement backs and necklines, while precious fabrics and frothy overskirts flow like the movements of the sea. Each gown has captured the wondrous spirit of the deep along with our hearts."
