About the Dress

BERTA BRIDAL COUTURE

The sole designer of the fashion house is Berta Balilti. Berta founded her namesake brand in 2004.

Berta has an avant-garde design style, one that always tests the barriers and boundaries of the modern world of fashion design. Her style of design is famous for being bold, sexy and modern, all while combining vintage materials and retro styles ensuring elegance.

Berta quickly rose to stardom in the fashion world after she managed to surprise even the most veteran fashion editors and bloggers with her artistic approach to high-end bridal fashion. Her collections are considered among the most praised and anticipated in the fashion world.

This dress is so flattering, detailed and looked beautiful in person as well as photographs. The straps have been customised with a bespoke inside / invisible rubber strap by an expert Berta specialist seamstress for total comfort all day and night. The beautifully long train can be specially tucked up with a subtle bustle to give the dress train two looks if you want to have the train shorter for dancing. There are also shelves built into the bodice (which can be removed if desired) but I felt amazing with these as they lifted my chest and I felt like I'd had a boob job for the day and would like them built into all my tops. I honestly have never felt more beautiful than in this dress and hope I can pass that on to a lovely bride to be.

Alterations

customised straps with invisible inserts to ensure maximum comfort, shelves built into bodice to lift chest (can be removed if desired), bustle loop added which is very subtle if you wanted to seamlessly secure the long train to keep it from dragging on the ground and ideal for dancing later and post ceremony, as the beautiful dramatic train is a wow moment for the aisle. Alterations were done by an expert seamstress who specialises in Berta designer dresses.
