About the Dress

This dress is couture in every way. From the single sleeve that drapes over one arm (can be removed) to the fitted bodice with the draping rosette and the A-line cut from the bodice down (not a true waist dress because the A-line begins at the base of the fitted bodice) including the asymmetrical folds that accentuate the figure, this dress is a dream come true. It’s completely unexpected slit and the organza material create a timeless elegance for any wedding needing a touch of formality and richness. This dress was professionally dry cleaned and steamed and is ready for your big day. It would be a perfect fit for size 6-12 (alterations needed for lower sizes).

From the brand:
Soft elegance takes center stage with the Ophelia gown. Ophelia showcases a luxuriously wrapped bodice that gathers into a handcrafted organza garden rose at the waist before gracefully spilling into an A-line skirt, complete with a captivating front slit. Designed for modern romantics seeking both a firm fit and a touch of drama, the Ophelia gown offers a fully structured silhouette that embraces the contours of the body while allowing the skirt to flourish in all its splendor.

Alterations

I shortened the dress to fit my height (6’ with heels); I also added a bustle (bustles on the outside) with 7 elastic hooks - one needs re-stitching - to allow for ease of walking and dancing at the reception.

Alterations

Alterations include (hemming in front only to match original hemline) AND bustling (7 elastic button and eye attachments) for ease of walking and dancing during reception
