About the Dress

Bespoke Joanne Panzarino Bridal Gown – Silk, French Lace & Silk Veil (AU 6-8)

A truly one-of-a-kind gown, handcrafted by renowned Australian bridal designer Joanne Panzarino for my wedding in 2007.
Lovingly created over 9 months from original hand-drawn illustrations, this couture gown was an investment of over $12,000 AUD — a true work of art.
Worn once, professionally dry-cleaned immediately after, and carefully preserved in its original air-tight box for over 18 years, it remains in pristine condition — ready for its next beautiful bride.
This exquisite gown features:
• Luxurious silk and delicate French lace, with hand-sewn sequin detailing throughout
• A romantic sweetheart neckline with pleated frills and lace embellishment across the bodice
• A flattering dropped waist with a soft satin bow at the hips
• Hundreds of hand-applied silk tulle pleats cascading into a dreamy, voluminous skirt
• Silk-covered buttons and a low back for a timeless, elegant finish
• Fully lined in silk with a structured, padded corset bodice for comfort and flawless fit
• A matching silk veil is included to complete the bridal look
Sizing: Designed to best fit an AU Size 6–8.
Original Price: Over $12,000 AUD.
Creation Time: 9 months from original sketches to final masterpiece.
Located in Bellevue Hill, Sydney — available for pick-up only.
If you are searching for a gown that tells a story, feels like a dream, and is as special as your love story, this could be the one.
