The Dress

The radiant Macpherson is a modern twist on a traditional ball gown. Featuring a full skirt of luminous Mikado, its distinctive front split reinvents this classic shape. Macpherson's corseted bodice features a square neckline with wide straps to bring timeless, contemporary sophistication.

I customised the dress by removing the adding pockets and removing the split, at additional cost to myself. These edits were completed by Chosen by Kyha. The split can easily be added back in as it is along the seam. I also added a wrist loop post-purchase.

I loved wearing this dress on my wedding day - it felt classic and elegant, but modern enough. It was also very comfortable to eat and dance in.

I am 167cm tall and wore 10cm heels.
