The Dress

This dress was an absolute dream and a pleasure to wear, I wore it in a full ball gown style (with hoop) which was stunning and it can be worn as an a-line as well (without hoop). I had so many compliments on this gown!

The beaded bodice and sheer straps that taper to a deep v-back / backless style are so flattering and the bead work continues into the skirt in small sprays of sparkle throughout, all the way onto the train.

Words don't do this dress justice, it was just perfect and I'd love to think it will make another bride's day!

The dry cleaning brought the dress up like brand new. There is a small tear in one of the under layers of lace at the front (not visible when wearing) and some loose beads and a button or two, but nothing you would notice or in need of repair.

I also have a cathedral style 3m veil with face veil for sale as well (£50) and if you want the hoop I wore with it it's yours free of charge, however I did alter the hoop quite a bit for a better fit, so it's not in an as new condition.

If you want any more pics, info or would like to try it on at my home (I'm in Bethnal Green, London) please get in touch.

Alterations

I had a pocket added to the skirt which has an internal feed for an insulin pump if you happen to be diabetic like me, otherwise it would work as a normal pocket for lipstick etc.

I had a bustle added so that you can bustle up the train for dancing etc.

I had it taken in at the waist, but did not need to alter the length as I wore such a large hoop underneath. I'm 168cm tall and usually wear a size 8 up top and 8-10 in jeans.
