Dress Description:

Monique Lhuillier Miranda
As soon as I tried on this dress, I knew it was 'the one.' For over a year, I tried on other designs but kept coming back to Miranda. Nothing else compared. I purchased it new in Spring 2007 for my August 2007 wedding. I wore it only for 7 hours.

Description:
The dress is a gorgeous, form-fitting ivory sheath with ivory Alecon lace. The lace work is stunning. It has a scalloped V-shaped low neckline (which can be made higher with added lace). The dress hugs the body in a very flattering way, with a skirt that flairs out at the knees. The back is shaped with V neck that is not too-low, but mirrors the asymmetric lace of the front. It looks great from all angles -- it flows when you walk, looks sleek from the side, has a delicate curve to the train from the back, and forms great lines when bustled. It is elegant, classy, and understated sexy -- perfect to make you feel beautiful on your wedding but not upset your mother-in-law! I promise you will receive compliments for months after wearing it!

Alterations:
The dress is a size 8, but I am a size 4 -6 street size. We had minor alterations made with the explicit instructions that we wanted to sell it afterwards. The tailor added cups for small-sized breasts (I don't know the size, but I assume A), slightly took in the shoulders and waist, and adjusted a little off the hem. I am 5ft 8.5 inches w/o shoes and wore only a 1/2 inch heel so the hem could fall nicely on the ground. The tailor recommends that the dress can be worn by someone with similar proportions as mine or smaller. The dress looks great on a tall, slender frame.

If the neckline is too low,you can easily order extra lace from the Monique L'Huillier flagship store. We did not add the extra lace because I have a long torso and liked the length of the V-neck.

Condition:
Dress is in excellent condition. After the wedding, there were a few small snags on the train from outdoor pictures. We had them repaired by a professional wedding dress tailor who works with Monique L'Huillier dresses frequently. She did an amazing job and they cannot be seen.

I hope that you will enjoy this gorgeous dress!
