The Dress

I wore this Mariana Hardwick custom-made dress NYE 2017. It was dry cleaned three days after the wedding, by Mariana Hardwick's recommended dry cleaner - Ferrari.

It has the top half of the Jayde gown, seen on Mariana Hardwick website here:

with a completely bespoke bottom half, modelled on the silhouette of a One Day Bridal dress I also loved:

The dress has a low scoop neckline, and low back. It is fastened with a few small buttons, then zip. The top half is a french guipure lace on a mesh lining. It flexes with your body, so feels like is moulded to you. The bottom half is quite fitted, with a lovely matte silk. It's thick enough that it holds you in, and smooths all the lines. But is still fluid enough that, with the train, the dress has a lovely movement. The skirt is fully lined. It has no boning, so it super-comfortable to wear. The train has a bustle, and a loop at the end to hold.

I am roughly am AUS size 8 - measurements (roughly!) 100cm hips, waist 71 cm. I am A-cup. However the dress would suit A through to small C, as it's a soft simple cup.
I am between 5'9" and 5'10", I wore flats. The dress can easily be taken up if needed.

Many more photos available on request.
I am very happy for try-ons in Melbourne (Richmond) at pre-arranged times.
