Studio Levana, Viola Black (Custom Made)

This dress is completely bespoke, literally the only one in the world. I paid £3700 for the dress.
The designer hand stitched the flowers and changed the flowers order from the original design to ensure it flowed correctly. It is absolutely stunning.
I have included a photo of the original dress on a model, then you can see I've added sleeves and detail on the back.

There is a bustle that had been added by altering part of a flower which then sits over one of the black pearls down the back of the dress which creates a fan effect - I don't have a photo of the dress bustled unfortunately you couldn't keep me still long enough to get a clear photo.

The dress has the Studio Levana patented corset inside (attached in the dress).
The corset does up with a shoelace like design and my bridesmaids said it was easy to do.

The dress is not as heavy as it looks, it's about 2kg and I was able to comfortably walk, run, dance and even play chase with the kids very easily for 12+ hours!

There is a small tear in the bottom on the outer layer of black organza, however it is very small (approx 2cm) and fixing it should be no issue with a good seamstress. You probably wouldn't really notice it and if altering the dress to bring it up, it would go completely.
The ivory fabric underneath gives layers to this dress which as you can see from the photos just adds beautiful depth.

The dress has been dry cleaned and is stored inside the dress bag, in a room where no direct sunlight can get to it. It has never been hung by the shoulders (only briefly for photos the morning of the wedding), only ever hung by the studio Levana hanging loops attached to the dress.

I am 6ft tall and wore trainers on the day, being a bigger girly (and we sized up to be sure) there is lots of room for alterations - the corset removed the need for any of my own alterations.

This dress bought me so much happiness, it was everything I wanted and more! I want to share that happiness with someone else - it's not a dress to stay hidden in a cupboard, and I hope it's everything you want!
