The Dress

Martina Liana style 931 , Ivory: Lace, Tulle and Regency Organza
Exquisite lace and beaded tulle work all over but particularly around bodice, sweetheart neckline with thin lace straps, mid back. Train is mid length and hooks up to a bustle with 3 small buttons.
I am a normal 12-14 Australian size but this dress is a size 16.
I would never buy a size 16 in normal fashion, so this sizing is on the small side.
My dimensions for the wedding were (B)90.5cm, (W)78.0cm, (H) 100cm.
I am approx 159cm tall and wore 10cm heels.
NB: Most pictures on the web show the dress with a 'java' coloured under skirt, my dress has an ivory underskirt so is much lighter. The first 3 pictures in this ad are the ivory colour of my dress and the 4th pic is showing the dress from the front is from the web in java.

From Martina Liana website: "Long, V-neckline with organic lace detailing, linear beading and sheer side cutouts. This mix of lace and beadwork continues through the gown and onto the full, flared skirt. A scoop back, complete with sheer detailing and a scalloped-lace edge, highlights the back of this gown. The rich lace and linear beading continue down the back of the skirt into a dramatic train. The back of this vintage wedding dress zips up beneath pearl buttons."

Alterations

Length shortened, sculptured in at the hips slightly and a layer of tulle removed from train to lessen weight
