About the Dress

This Riki Dalal Liri Bridal "Karlie" Wedding dress was perfect for me!

It is a stunning fit-and-flare gown from Riki Dalal (she's an Israeli bridal designer) which has ivory lace and a champagne underlayer which was so perfect for my outdoor summer wedding. It has a dramatic silhouette with a low cut v-neck front and a backless back, with intricate lace that look classy and an amazing train!!! The train has the applique placement in the very middle (you can see it from the pictures) that is gorgeous even when it is bustled up (with the applique). Got SO many compliments on this dress during and after the wedding. It has a classic look yet really flatters the body shape. I am pretty straight bodied (no curves) but felt that this really accentuated the curves in the right ways.

Can definitely send more pics if you're interested! it really is a beautiful dress. I wore it for just the ceremony and cocktail hour and first dance part of the wedding before getting changed for the reception. It is pristine cleaned. Open to offers!

Alterations

I tightened up the straps a little bit and took in the hips slightly but it was still very comfortable to move around in. I put in a bustle in so should be ready for wear! Since it is an intricate lace dress, just the bustle alone cost $800 for alterations.
