The Dress

From Olivia Bottega's website: "Classic. Stylish. Extravagant. A wonderful gown for your very special day. Semi sweetheart top is added with thick straps, creating this very rich looking style, deep open back in a boatline cut is very sexy. The bodice is quite dense, made in a style of twisted around fabric, tightly hugging your waist, yet very soft and comfortable against your skin. The top very glamorously transitions into the lush skirt, starting with a few creases around the waist, to add more luxe into your look. And we know, mikado always looks extra gorgeous. The train is very wide and long, for the most royal look. We are sure, if you wear this dress on your special day, there will be one more reason to always remember how beautiful it was."

100% mikado silk with a 14-point French bustle, one point of which will need to be mended. Once the bustle comes up, you’ll be able to move very freely.

Recently dry cleaned. See photos for corset, train & bustle detail.
