Eva Lendel, Jess

Eva Lendel Jess Dress. Worn once on my wedding day in Maine in September, 2023. The dress and overskirt have since been professionally cleaned.

The dress has a dramatic overskirt that can be removed between ceremony and reception. The dress underneath is a simple but stunning sheath with a bit of flare starting at mid-thigh made out of Mikado silk with a soft lining. Slight sheen to the dress but not ultra shiny. I had requested for full length bridal buttons to be added to the back as a customization by the designer. The overskirt attaches with two high quality snaps, though one unfortunately has gone missing since the cleaning. The overskirt could be easily secured with a replacement button on that side.

Overall a stunning dress and a day I will never forget. I received so many compliments on the dress and it looked wonderful in our photos. The boning in the bodice makes the dress feel very secure - no tugging - and is nicely concealed by the draping of the sleeves. It was great to get two looks for the price of one! It also felt good to support a Ukrainian designer and business.

I paired a cathedral length veil with a subtle fade to an ice blue tone at the bottom (purchased online from an artisan in Lithuania). I will happily include the veil at no extra cost to an interested buyer.
