About the Dress

Mikado fabric (a heavier, structured silk fabric with a subtle sheen). Has deep pockets but these are subtle (wouldn't know they were there). There is a hook underneath to pin the train up if required for dancing.

Timeless A-Line Wedding Dress with Off-the-Shoulder Neckline
Old Hollywood glamour meets modern bridal sophistication in Style 7535. Designed in an elegant Mikado, this timeless A-line wedding dress features a regal, off-the-shoulder banded neckline for a flattering and princess-like appeal. From the waist, the dress extends into a full skirt and train with discreet pockets and a horsehair hem for a formal and structured look. The Mikado-covered buttons add an elegant back detail that extends all the way from the high neckline to the end of the train for a simple yet stunning finishing touch.

Happy to add in the veil too, plain, chapel length.
The banded neckline is attached to the dress and cannot be removed.

The dress has been dry cleaned but there are still some marks around the bottom of the dress.

Alterations

The dress has been altered in length and waist size. When I originally bought the dress, I was around a UK size 12, on my wedding day I was a UK size 10 but with a waist size closer to an 8. Therefore, the label size won't be relevant. The dress needs to be fitted around the waist because it is strapless, this is what is holding up the weight of the dress. I've added my current measurements that fit the dress. I am 5ft 7" and the length just brushed the floor when I was wearing heels. Both the length and waist size can be altered again if needed without ruining the buttons running down the back. My seamstress also added some bra cups into the structure of the dress to help hold it up, keep the shape and reduce gaping but these can be removed again.
