*** Perfect for an indoor or winter wedding! ***
DESCRIPTION
Really elegant mermaid style wedding dress. A very sensual and provocative design, that plays with the element of surprise when you discover its incredible jewelled, and extremely deep and sexy back. Also, its balconette neckline and jewelled straps further emphasize the femininity of its wearer. The vaporous fabric in crepe Isabelle allows it to drape beautifully into a spectacular skirt with train.
This dress got sooo many compliments:
- "This wedding dress looks so rich!"
- "The most elegant dress I have ever seen!"
- "The back looks like a dozen diamond necklaces!"
- "It's so classy and sexy at the same time."
Details:
- Purchased as Sample in Size 8, altered to a Street size 4.
- Hemmed the front of the dress for 6'0" height with heels. Easily hemmed further.
Alterations:
- Crystal shoulder appliques adjusted to curve in towards neckline instead of out towards armholes
- Slightly shortened shoulders
- Lowered armholes for comfort
- Taken in at side seams and brought in slightly at hip (to reduce from Size 8 to Size 4). Did not take in below the hip/bum, but can easily be done
- Hemmed the front of the dress for 6'2" height with heels. Easily hemmed further.
- Bustled American style with a single hook
- Sewn-in bra cups (Cup B, easily removable)
- Spot cleaned and cleaned up pulls and stones. Some stones missing are unnoticeable (I wore it that way), but are easily filled in by any seamstress.
- Trimmed slightly on seam allowances
