The Dress

In my own words: I found this dress to be classically bridal in the ivory on ivory version, while still showcasing the two types of lace and beading. I got married on an incredibly hot summer day and this dress was light weight and breathable. The lightness of the chiffon bottom allows the dress to move beautifully as you walk. For dancing, you are able to bustle the train and when not bustled, the loops are virtually invisible. The low back adds a wow factor, but my favourite detail was actually the diagonal cut under the arms, where the lace edge gives way to open back. It's a very flattering and easy-to-wear style.

Minimal alterations were needed so the dress is very close to the original size. Cups were added, as well as a small piece of matching lace to the low back. Both of which the seamstress assured me were easily removable by a seamstress/tailor.
The dress was professionally dry-cleaned and boxed with a plastic dress-form to ensure that it would arrive to its next bride in the best condition possible. Like new!
