About the Dress

I purchased this "Archie" dress from Made With Love Bridal in December 2023, it arrived in September 2024, for my wedding in December 2024. It will come in its original box with with MWL dress bag (for hanging) and MWL hesian storage bag.

Pictures included show the dress on my wedding day and in it current condition.

Worn once, it has been dry cleaned and it is in great condition. There are a few very light, small (less than a 5 cent coin) marks and very minor fraying of the hemming on the bottom line of the train in one small section. I have shown this is the photo, where a small mark is also pointed out. You have to be inspecting very closely to see them. One stitch on the right cup has come off, this will be very easily fixed in alterations by adding a single stitch. During alterations, I added a bussle hook. It also comes with a wrist strap for carrying the train.

Here are the purchanse details as per my invoice.

- Cowl (back design): Yes
- Split size
- Bust: size 10
- Waist: size 10
- Hips: size 14
- Bra size C
- Neck line: Extra 3 cm higher neckline
- Added 3cm to bodice length
- Add a Dress Bag: Add a Made with Love Dress Bag

I opted for a 'medium' plunge, over the standard design 'low' plunge fit.

This dress would be suited well for a tall bride or brides with a long torso as I added 3 cm to the bodice length, however this could be altered if you aren't tall. I am 186cm tall and wore 9cm heels.

Alterations

Bustle hook added. Minor alterations to bring in the hips, and waist. Slightly shortened the straps. All of which could be undone. I was told that the dress is able to be altered 2 sizes down or up.
