ALTERATIONS
Double Boned Crinoline skirt sewed seamlessly into the dress to add more fullness to the skirt.
Aelin Twilight lining - a shimmery/sparkly silk tulle - is added to the front panel, beneath the first layer of the skirt, to add dimension and a subtle twilight to the overall aesthetic.  Appliqué is added to the chest area to cover the nipple as the dress is see-through. All alterations were done by Galia Lahav.

Although the dress has been worn once, it has been cleaned and restored to its original condition with no evidence of wear or tear, as the owner is a seamstress/fashion designer.  Matching veil for sale as well. Discount added if interested in both. PM for photos.
