Matthew Christopher Collection - Beautiful bands of sideswept silk organza and tulle swirl around you from the sweetheart neckline to the rippling trumpet skirt of this body-conscious gown. Chapel length train.

This is an absolutely stunning dress! I've tried on so many dresses but nothing stood out, until I came across this dress. I found this dress at a Matthew Christopher trunk show. I think this is a rare piece as I have not seen it at any other salons. I fell in love with the unique swirls of organza that created a vortex around the skirt and the train. The uneven length of the tulle and organza at the train also gave a slightly jagged look around the edge of the train (not your typical simple rounded edge).

Since Matthew Christopher was there himself, he offered to make my dress with custom hollow-to-hem measurement. When I finally received my dress and tried it on, it was a perfect fit! I didn't need to make any alterations in the bodice and the length was near perfect too.

My wedding was at a super modern art gallery space, so the dress was perfect as it is very modern and artistically designed. The venue is super clean and only had concrete flooring, so the dress is in perfect condition with no rip or tear, or stain of any kind. I also changed into another dress towards the end of the night so I didn't wear it the whole time.

I am around 5'6 1/2" to 5'7" . With 4" heels, I am almost 5'11" in the dress. I'm normally a size 2-4 in clothes, depending on the brand/designer.
