The Dress

A custom fitted Caroline Takvorian dress purchased from The Mew’s Bridal in Bristol.

Made from silk crepe and lace, this dress felt incredible to wear - soft, floaty and very elegant. A gorgeous deep V lace back (which got lots of complements!), flattering capped sleeves and a beautiful embroidered waist band. So comfortable to wear, light and easy to dance in when bustled up.

Professionally dry cleaned within two weeks of being worn, and in excellent condition with only a few minor marks at the bottom of the train, which are would be removed if the length of the dress was altered (I am 174cm tall and wore 6cm heels with the dress).

These were the exact measurements taken at my fitting to make the dress:
Back waist length - 43
Front waist length - 37
Bust - 87
Under bust - 75
Waist - 70
Small hip - 87
Full hip - 96
Waist to floor barefoot - 111
Full height without heel -174cm
(dress length altered to wear with 6cm heels)

Currently being stored hanging in the original breathable bag in a smoke and pet free home. Can be packaged in box for postage.

Please message for more photos and details. Happy to arrange for a video call or, if local, a time to come and see the dress in person before purchasing.

Sad to be selling, but I would love for someone else to feel the same happiness and joy I received from wearing this dress!

Alterations

Seamstress added a wrist loop to carry the train when walking, and bustle ties to bustle up the train for dancing.
Hanging loops to lift weight of shirt when hanging the dress.
