About the Dress

Featured as one of Vogue's top 11 timeless dresses, this Emilia Wickstead Diamond Duchesse gown is a beautiful take on a classic shape for a modern bride. This dress is brand new and has only been tried on.

The gown is deceptively light to wear and has glorious, flowing movement. Crucially, it also has pockets! I bought the last gown from Net-A-Porter before it sold out. In the end, I decided to go with a different style for my wedding but I would love to see it go to a loving home and make a new bride happy. As a result, it is brand new and has only ever been tried on.

The gown is crafted in Italy from white duchesse-satin and features a simple bodice with a sweetheart neckline and boning. The skirt is softly gathered and pleated along the empire waist. The gown is floor-length with an open back and a zipper closure. It features an incredibly flattering waistline, before pleats flow outwards into the fuller skirt.

There is flexibility in the sizing: it would fit a UK 16 (US12) (the sizing on the label), a UK 14 comfortably (US10), and a UK 12 (US 8) with some alterations to cinch the waist to show it off as much as possible. I’m happy to ship worldwide or to answer any questions about sizing. Do also check the measurements that I've uploaded.

Please feel free to send across any questions - and I hope you find your perfect dress!
