The Dress

Words cannot express how much I love this alluring figure-hugging gown.

The top was made from Ivory Tulle and had a boat neck in the front, and a lower cut V-neck at the back. The bodice is beautified with these gorgeous beaded 3D lace flowers and bound the neckline. (The bust is padded so no need to worry about bras either)

The skirt was made from stretch crepe and featured a rather high slit that is detailed with the same lace as the bodice. The lace just subdued the slit slightly, creating a soft sensual effect.

This dress also comes with the original floor-length matching veil with delicate flower detailing which is included in the asking price.

I purchased this dress from a fellow bride Jana in South Africa who had super talented Alana van Heerden custom make this dress for her. You can read more about Alana's story here:

I have included a link to images of Jana wearing this dress so that you can see how amazing this dress looks on a different person. The dress originally cost Jana 16,400 ZAR and the original invoice is available upon request.

This dress has been worn a total of three times, once by Jana in South Africa, twice by me in New Zealand. This dress has a story of its own and I hope it can travel to another corner of the world to you and make you shine on your wedding day.

This dress has been meticulously cleaned by New Zealand’s leading specialist bridal gown service at Regal Drycleaners and it costs NZD425(Receipt available upon request).You can read more about them below:

As with all pre-loved dresses, there will be small blemishes (some loose beads on the 3D flowers, and some small stains on the bottom of the skirt) which would not impact how beautiful this dress will look in photos.

I followed this measurement guide when measuring my sizes.
