The Dress

'Feminine and sweet, this gown, featuring Anemone Embroidered Lace and Illusion Tulle, is a perfect match for the bride who craves a hint of whimsy on her big day. An eye-catching halter bodice cascades into a skirt of soft netting, creating an ethereal spirit. Sweep train.'

The above, from the Willowby website, is a great description of the dress. I fell in love with this dress because it's a little bit different but isn't too whimsy (like some I looked at) giving the option of stylising in a more traditional or a boho way. The dress is an Ivory colour with an almond layer underneath the netting which gives it a soft look.

I only wore it for about 6 hours for our evening wedding celebration as we had the ceremony on a separate day and I wore a different dress so although it hasn't been dry cleaned, it hasn't had much ware and I have sponge cleaned it.

I love that it is still very much a wedding dress (I had considered less wedding-esque dresses) yet feels very natural and easy to wear. The mix of lace and tulle with the halterneck backless style is really lovely. I wore it with a ribbon around the waste (which you're welcome to have) but it looks equally as nice without (I kept going back on fourth on whether to wear a ribbon!).


Alterations

I had the halterneck clasp moved slightly (there is enough material to adjust it fit you) and the dress shortened by a few inches. I was sewn into the dress at the back as I'd lost a little weight by the day so there are a few marks from where the stitches were which I've tried to show in the last 2 photos (I can send you more photos if you like).
