The Dress

Amazing dress. It was the most comfortable and beautiful dress I put on out of all the dresses I tried on.

From Galia Lahav website "An embroidered tulle ballgown with embroidered lace trimming and immense floral patterns, this dress has a plunging V neckline, drop low back and hidden pockets"

It was perfect for my wedding day. I made three adjustments to the original style of the dress, but was done by the designer flag ship store in NY, Bridal Reflections. The back was supposed to be a French strap where the appliqués go into the armpit and have more of an open back. I didnt like that the nude netting had a seam on my back so they covered it with appliqué to match and continue the straps. Also on the side body I didnt like how straight the side of the bodice was so I had them add appliqué there as well to make it a softer transition. The last thing is I wanted a little sparkle in the skirt part of the dress since there was none and they layered a piece of sparkle fabric from another one of their dresses underneath the lace fabric. It was a perfect dress for my wedding. I wore it with flat sandals so I could dance the night away, so it has been hemmed to my height with sandals. There are also bustle buttons on back as well. I never attached the body piece inside the skirt so that part has never been used. It has been cleaned. I was originally supposed to be married in 2020, but had to push the wedding cause of covid, so the dress has been preserved once already. There are bust pads that can be removed as well.

Alterations

Bustle added, hemmed, and bust pads added. Pock
