Description
I wanted, like every girl, to feel like a princess on my special day. I also wanted a dress that I could describe as fun but still classy. This dress gave me everything I wanted and more. People still talk about this dress! It is exclusive to Strictly Bridal and was custom made and I am only aware of one other dress like this - what a great guarantee that you are not going to see this dress everywhere.
This dress has delicate Italian lace detail in silver and white (see picture for detail) with fully boned satin bodice. It laces up at the back (corset style, excellent for providing great shape) and discreetly tucks in so you don't have excess ribbon at the back. The skirt (fully attached to the bodice) is six layers of organza tulle with a satin skirt as the first layer. Just under the bust is a tulle and bead detail. I wore a 2 bar hoop which is also included with the dress.
Immediately after the wedding I had the dress professionally dry cleaned by the recommended company of Strictly Bridal. This was to ensure that the delicate lace would not be damaged. The dress doesn't have a specific size due to being made from scratch though I normally wear size 10/12 clothes so would easily fit sizes 8-12.
I also have a matching veil if you would like it (optional) that is made using the same tulle and has beautiful beading across the comb. It perfectly suited the dress and was made to a specific length. The veil is actually two veils sewn together to suit the style of the skirt.
I love this dress and felt amazing on my day - hopefully the right girl will find this dress just as amazing.
