The Dress

I live in NYC and it TOOK ME AGES to find this dream dress. Every other shop I went to had similar silhouettes but not the right fabric or the right cut. This dress feels luxury - classic but modern, sexy but demure, timeless and elegant! Carol Hannah has outdone herself with this Fit and flare plunge in stretch satin crepe with includes her signature fluid movement train. I have never felt so confident or so slender in my entire life.

The dress itself is incredible and includes a custom bustle (multiple ties) for complete peace of mind during the dancing portion of the night. I also added decorative satin buttons down the back to add to the stunning square low back cut as well as cups so no need to wear a bra. Still includes a very secure zipper close so no need to worry about crochet hook - extremely easy in and out! Never received so many "stunning" compliments on a dress.

I purchased this dress from Carol Hannah directly and paid for their in-house alterations service. The fit was pretty much perfect so the only alterations were the strap length (the dress came from the atelier with the straps unattached) and a trim off of the bottom which should fit many as I am very tall and hemmed it to 5'10''. I already brought this dress in for a professional cleaning ($500) and it looks absolutely perfect, good as new!

I loved wearing this dress for our Central Park, NYC wedding but as I spent months trying to find this dress and paid full price - I am hoping to give back to someone else in my shoes and can love it as much as I did!
