The Dress
Classic and elegant ivory silk mikado dress, made by Allure Bridals. The dress is a new style this year, and I purchased it new in March 2018 for my October 2018 wedding. The dress is made from a beautiful heavy fabric perfect for winter/spring weddings, with amazing lines that transform the simplicity into understated elegance. The foldover at the neckline adds uniqueness, and the long cathedral length train adds some glamour. The satin covered buttons go all the way down to the end of the train, which is a feature I loved (hello buttons!). The dress is fit and flare which makes it form fitting, but because it is made from a heavier fabric and with boning in the waist, it is also very forgiving.
I am a 34B/32C bust, with a 28/29 inch waist, and 40 inch hips. I am between a size US 6 and 8. This dress shows off a small waist, a nice butt, and modest but also a little bit sexy neckline. I'm 5'9" and wore 2.2 inch heels. Don't have nice photos of the back yet, so adding a stock photo for you to see what it looks like (although the stock photo is in the almond colour way).
The dress was beautifully dry cleaned immediately after the wedding, and I can send you a photo of the receipt if you'd like.
FYI cape not included!
Alterations
I ordered this dress in a Size 12 (street size 8). The dress was taken in in the bust, waist and hips. It would perfectly fit a street size US 6 on top with a US 8 on bottom. It can also be let out or taken in more to fit anywhere from a US 4, 6, 8, and 10, although I don't think it would work for someone who is a Size 4 at the hips.
I also made a few other alterations:
1. Added cups into the bust. These can be taken out to add more room for a bigger busted lady.
2. Added 3-point French bustle to ready you for dancing!
3. Every 5th button was sparkly on the original dress. I changed these sparkly ones to match the other satin buttons.
I did not hem the bottom; I am 5'9" and wore 2.2 inch heels and it was a perfect length.
