- DRESS DETAILS
-
I LOVE this Gown! - This Augusta Jones (Skye) wedding gown was exactly as I described when searching for the perfect dress: whimsical, modern, and something a little different. The sweetheart neckline is such a flattering fit for a smaller bust size like mine. That, combined with the hidden corset, drop-waist, and sizable heels, I floated around in my dress my entire wedding day and night.
The details:
The bust of the dress is made from ivory taffeta which is slightly gathered across the entire bodice. The dress has a corseted bodice on the inner layer (which is such a nice detail in the dress quality and functionality - no bras needed!). However, there is an outer layer which simply zips over the corset, concealing it. The bust of the dress is separated from the skirt by beautifully intricate beading detail at the bottom of the drop waist. The skirt is an organza like material which is the most interesting part - the material is hand-sewn into large floral shapes which cover the length of the entire skirt - these are slightly raised off of the dress giving it that textured, whimsical look. At the very bottom of the skirt, there is a delicate lace detail on the hem.
Condition:
This gown is in perfect condition. No spills, no rips, and no dirt or even left over deodorant. It is from the August Jones 2010 collection and will be just perfect for any type of ceremony: from a formal indoor ceremony to an outdoor or country wedding, this is a STUNNER that I will be a little sad to see go.
- DRESS ALTERATIONS
- The alterations: The dress was altered in its length so that it would match my 5ft 2in frame while wearing 4 inch Badgley Mischka heels (making me around 5ft 6in in the dress). The dress was altered to bustle into a french bustle - these alterations are still present and in perfect condition. And again, the tailor suggested a little padding be sewn into the bodice, which was merely for a little extra support - these little cotton pads can be easily removed.

- PRESERVATION METHOD
- Cleaning of the dress post wedding: The wedding was celebrated in July of 2011. I had my dress dry-cleaned two weeks after the wedding, but did so again last week (December 10, 2011) in the hopes of listing and selling it here.
