The Dress

A gown that brings all the romance to any wedding day, this wedding dress with lace sleeves and V-neckline from Essense of Australia is simply breathtaking! Soft, cotton lace covers the bodice of this gown, giving a modern update with its unique, floral lace pattern. A deep V-neckline is the focal point of the bodice, extending easily into an off-the-shoulder neckline that has an organic lace edge. This romantic lace detailing carries down the arms, providing a good amount of coverage to the entire arm. From the waist down, the fitted skirt of this dress shows off your curves effortlessly before flaring out at the knees. The back of the gown is open and is highlighted with sheer, illusion-lace details and organic lace detailing throughout the skirt and train. The back of this wedding dress with lace sleeves and V-neckline zips up beneath crystal buttons. The stunning lace train is a show stopper!

The wide open back is covered with the illusion and edged with beautiful floating lace details and a row of Swarovski crystal buttons was added from waist to neck (see image).

The train can be bustled up with 6 crystal buttons (3 for the underskirt and 3 for the lace train). The top of the dress is unlined with sheer tulle and built in nude bra cups (Size D). The most elegant and stunning dress of my dreams!

Alterations

Bustle was added (see image). New bra cups were sewn into the bodice (Size D). Swarovski button crystals were added up the back from waist to neck. The length was shorted about 2 inches because I wore flat tennis shoes. All illusion lace is brand new across the chest, up the back, and sleeves were hand sewn and redone. Hips were let out a little to make it "looser" and not pull across the front.
