About the Dress

This Nina Gown from J.Andreatta Bridal Couture was the perfect dress! I managed to buy this at a sample sale at the atelier in Surry Hills as a special one off that was only used for a few trunk shows, not an actual sample, basically brand new condition! Free flowing, full bodied, super lightweight and elongating, I have received endless compliments and questions on where I got this dress. The gown is made from printed silk organza with a lined bodice and 4 skirt layers including thickened tulle layer to create a fuller skirt.

Happy to throw in the full length veil I got to go with it (extends approx 20cm past the length of the train).

Dress was immediately dry cleaned after use by J.Andreatta’s recommended dry cleaner at Limes Dry Cleaners in Mosman and is crystal clean!

Only small damage is section of rolled hem at the bottom of the skirt has frayed. Photo of this in photo 4. Simple rolled hem repair slightly higher will fix this. I am 167cm tall and wore 8cm high heels on the day.
