The Dress

This is the official description on Paloma Blanca's website:

French Alençon Lace and Paloma Satin. Lace bodice with plunging scalloped neckline and key hole back. Fit and flare satin skirt. Swarovski buttons. Chapel Train. Available colours: Natural.

This dress is simply stunning! As a bride, it accentuates your best features, but does not overpower your look. I simply fell in love with the simple details: the lace top, the plunging neckline (which is partially covered with a sheer fabric so it's not that scandalous), the key hole back is just perfect (the swarovski crystal buttons add a gorgeous detail)!

My favorite part about this dress was how comfortable it felt on and how great it came out in photos. The last thing a bride needs to worry about is looking "fat" or awkward due to the dress. It's just not possible for this dress to make you look anything but amazing!

I am 5'6" and wore 3.5" heels on my wedding day. The dress is floor length with heels on. I still have the extra fabric, which I did not use at all. The dress has been professionally dry cleaned, but the interior layer (pretty much just the hem) is slightly gray - this is not visible whatsoever when it's worn, whether in person or in pictures.

The best thing about the dress is the amazingly executed french bustle! It turned out divine and it's so easy to put together in preparation for a night of dancing at your reception!

*The dress was purchased and altered at Kleinfeld's in NYC.
