The Dress

A beautiful and very unique dress, made of elastic crepe and organza.
I was so nervous about ordering this dress online, and 'made to measure'. But the business that I ordered it from (representatives of designer Tatiana Kaplun) was absolutely excellent, and the dress was made EXACTLY like on the photos and on the model.
You will not easily find a model like this - the design is a perfect balance of femininity and elegance, and minimalistic yet very elevated style. The petal-like organza sleeves are what give this classic dress a very chic and modern touch.
The dress has a satin lining, so it's not completely see-through, but you will still have to wear Spanx shape wear for the optimal look.
I married in July 2023, and it was more than 30 degrees Celsius, but the dress was very comfortable to wear. I absolutely loved it, because the butterfly sleeves allowed me to dance freely.

PLEASE NOTE: after taking the dress to dry cleaner's, the coating of the originally 'pearly' buttons that give the elevated look to the dress got washed off, as you can see on the last photo.
If you are dedicated have this unique dress, it is definitely worth investing in the replacement of the buttons with your local tailor or online, which shouldn't be difficult nor expensive.
Here is the Amazon link to the buttons, they retail for approximately $14 https://www.amazon.com/Nakpunar-Pearl-Bridal-Buttons-Ivory/dp/B011T4V3J2?th=1

Additionally, the very bottom of the dress (but more so the lining), still has some visible traces of the soil, since my wedding took place outdoors. However, it is definitely possible to remove it by taking it once more to the dry cleaner's.
