About the Dress

This is the Jenny Yoo Francesca Gown Without Slit (Style: 12373N) that was adjusted to open a left-sided slit to 3-4" above-the-knee.

Original Jenny Yoo Description: "The Francesca gown is an effortless blend of clean lines and romantic details. The fit and flare silhouette, cut in our Italian crepe fabric, hugs and flatters every curve. Silk chiffon draped languidly across the shoulders and bodice adds a timelessly feminine feeling, and offers a versatile convertible sleeve. Streamers at the back add one last dramatic detail, and detach for ease of wear."

I love this dress! I purchased it in 2024 and wore it on my wedding day in May 2025. I specifically love how the streamers at the back add a romantic flare and were easily detachable for a change of vibe. I added a veil from Amazon in a shade that matched the streamers. Otherwise, this dress could be worn without a veil with the streamers giving a veil-like effect! The wedding venue was indoors with hardwood/carpeted flooring. We went outdoors for photos only on cement flooring (~45 minutes) and the dress did not touch the grass.

The original size 4 dress was tailored to my measurements (34 bust, 28 waist, 37 hips). I also added padded bra cups and opened a left-sided leg slit. I originally wanted to purchase the Francesca with Slit (Style: 12373B) but that style's slit was too high up (nearly 6-7") above-the-knee for my taste. So, I opted to purchase the gown without a slit and had a slit opened to 3-4" above-the-knee. I am 5' 4.5" and wore 3.5" heels for my wedding (total height 5' 8" with shoes). To make the dress more wearable for my first dance, I had a bustle added for the train (hidden metal hook and clip for sturdiness) and I wore the off-the-shoulder draping on my shoulders for the dance. Afterwards, I switched into a different dress for the rest of the reception. My total wear-time in the gown was approximately 4 hours.

I had this gown professionally cleaned by Lapels in Durham North Carolina immediately after the wedding to remove small dirt stains from the outdoor photo location.

I hope to find this dress a new home with a bride who will love it as much as I did! I want to be as helpful and as transparent as possible so that whoever purchases it will have a good experience wearing it at their wedding. I am happy to send additional photos or answer any questions! If you'd like the veil as well (it's a simple hair pin with the fabric reaching mid-back), I'm happy to do so - just please specify such.
