The Dress

MATICEVSKI – PRESENT GOWN 2016 SOLD OUT Size 6.

This is a fairy-tale white wedding gown, crafted from structured honeycomb tulle with a sumptuous silk satin lining. The anomalous hemline draws attention to refined heels.
To quote the Maticevski website ‘It’s a standout piece, the Present Gown marries a renegade sense of style with timeless, classic elegance. Perfect for the modern bride".

A lightweight, woven dual layered mesh skirt is kept shorter at front and lengthened at the back for a dramatically modern effect. The bodice is kept clean and structured, detailed with a uniquely feminine shape through the sleeve opening. Closed with a silver zip at centre back, and lined in silk for the final luxe touch. This dress was sold out across Australia in hours!

To be used as a guide only as each style may vary depending on fabric, cut, style and silhouette.

The dress is quite roomy around the hips (where the skirt commences) and not a strict size 6. The bodice is more fitted but I found it to be slightly loose on myself. I had the dress altered to shorten the bodice slightly, to simulate the look of the model pictured above, as I found that the skirt hung too low on me. It has been altered by the seamstress in a way that will allow it to be taken back down to its original length, if required.

The dress was worn once on my wedding day and has since been dry cleaned. Happy to send through more photos, or please contact me if you would like to try on this stunning gown!
