The Dress

I felt a million dollars in this incredible dress.

Spanish designer, French lace, a classic wedding dress with a modern sexy twist. Fabrics are premium with a luxury feel. Was easy to move in with give-able fabric on the skirt.

The bodice has light boning so was soft but supportive and the skirt had the perfect amount of weight in it so it fell and moved beautifully, especially on the dance floor! The leg split and V-neck were modified to ensure not too much cleavage (but still a little)and modesty when sitting down with crossed legs. The length is original, it didn't need taking up no matter what height as it looked great just brushing the floor as the split opened.

The dress has beautiful details with crystal beaded buttons on wrists which match the buttons down the back, a blue ribbon for good luck sewn on the inside, and thoughtfully placed sequins throughout the lace bodice and arms which gives this dress a lovely evening feel as the sun sets (a bit of extra sparkle for the reception!).

Designer description:
This seductive sheath dress combines a crepe skirt with wide front split with a sensual beaded embroidered Chantilly lace bodice with long sleeves, low V-neckline and V-back.

Sizing guide:
The dress fit like a glove, my sizes below.
7-8 on hips/waist
8-9 across shoulders
10DD cups in dress (a bust size of C, D or DD would fit, there is currently no padding in the DD cups. These cups could easily be removed and replaced with your favourite cups, the dress maker sewed in my favourite bra cups so I felt the same shape I usually am)
Height: I am 170cm but there was plenty of length left on the hem for someone taller.


Alterations

Alterations undertaken have added further modesty to the dress & removed the seam lines on the bodice (the lace was hand sewn back on to give a custom-made look instead of factory produced).

Additional matching lace was purchased from the designer to bring the deep V-neck into a normal V-neck.

- V-neck: Additional lace sewn in to close the deep V-neck
- Bodice: lace re-sewn to give custom look and cover original factory seam lines & soft cup underwire bra sewn in for extra support and lift.
- Arms: taken in to hug arms (lace if very soft and comfortable)
- Skirt split: Height of split sewn down as was very high and just covering pubic bone
- Back zip: extra hooks sewn in to give zip extra support and safety
- Skirt: slight taken in to perfectly fit my hips
