About the Dress

Monique Lhuillier
Windsor Gown, Melrose Jacket & Fleur De Lis Veil

Windsor Gown:

This Monique Lhuillier Windsor duchesse satin wedding gown is silk white with an elegant sleeveless fit, drop waist, flared Royal Train, classic wide strap scoop neckline with open back and princess seams. The Windsor gown was paired with a Melrose Lace Jacket and Fleur De Lis Veil all purchased and fitted at Monique's Flagship Store on Melrose Place, Los Angeles in summer 2024.
The bride is 5’10”, normally wears a size 8 dress size and wore a 3” heel with this gown. The Windsor gown was purchased in a size 12 and then customized to fit the bride's body. The bust cup was opened to a C and 5" extra length were added due to the bride's height.

The gown can be bustled two ways (over or under). Monique's HQ. Videos are available on how to bustle the dress. The bustle has color-coordinated threads (not visible to anyone), which makes it easy to assemble.

The bride wore the gown for the reception only (2 hours) and it was cleaned immediately after the wedding at Margaret's Couture Cleaner of Los Angeles at a cost of $800. The dress has no visible stains and is like new.
