The Dress

An amazing dress for the petite bride!

I can honestly say that I love this dress. It is soft, flowy, airy, and so amazingly romantic! The bodice gives off more than enough sparkle to satisfy even the greediest magpie and the train will make you feel like a princess. The rhinestone bodice gives off a vintage-y feel but the deep v-neckline and no back give it just enough of a modern touch. It is deceptively light compared to other dresses of the same size and length. Minimal alterations were made. Dress was fluffy enough on its own without a hoop skirt.

This dress was ordered in *petite sizing* straight from the manufacturer. I am 5'4" and with 3" heels on, the length of the dress in the front was JUST perfect. If you are taller than me + my heels this dress might be too short for you!
Dress color is Ivory with Ivory illusion.
The waist of the dress was slightly loose on me but didn't affect anything overall (I am 110-115lbs if that helps)

I was very comfortable in the dress all day and all night. I was able to walk around, go up and down stairs, sit, and dance with ease. Putting on and taking off the dress required only minimal assistance (just needed someone to hook the zipper).

The dress is bustled with 5 points across 3 layers. The purple-y reception picture is how the dress looks once it is all bustled up - very Cinderella-esque!
Instructional video can be provided.

Dress was professionally cleaned at a local, top rated, specialty gown cleaner.
While the gown travels well, the dress will need to be steamed after you receive it!

Happy to answer any questions!


Other notes:
- There is one area (~size of a thumbprint) in the back where the horsehair trim is not perfect, still intact.
- Dress was worn 99% of the time on pavement or indoors (marble floors, carpet).
- As with all backless dresses, dress tape along the edges will prevent any gaping!

Alterations

Straps shortened about an inch (original straps are still intact, beading saved off to the side).

5-point bustle (see reception pic)

Original cups were very loose so they were sewn on more securely.
