The Dress

The Fontanne wedding dress is refined elegance with statement sequin panel lines framed by a V-neck bodice and figure hugging bias cut skirt. Due to the elaborate beading and sequins, this dress is especially flattering across all shapes and sizes.

I wore this on my wedding day in November, it was incredibly comfortable...I wore it for 12 hours!
It's in excellent condition. There are a couple of tiny tiny holes on the back hem which isn't noticeable due to all the extra draped material. A there are some small areas where the beads have come undone but again this is not noticeable.

This gown is cut in one piece so the fine beaded belt at the waist is optional.
The dress is quite stretchy making it very comfortable to wear and would fit a size 6 to 8 NZ.

It comes with a Karen Willis Holmes wedding dress bag and a sew kit with addtional beads.

Designed & finished in Australia and hand beaded in India
Fully lined with stretch lining
Stretch fit with centre back zip closure

It is yet to be dry cleaned - it only has a few marks on the bottom hem

Alterations

The dress has been hemmed to suit my height (160cm) wearing 5cm heels.
Two sillk ribbons have also been added to allow the train to form a bustle.
Subtle "bust enhancers" or bra cups have been added so no bra is required when wearing it.
The straps have been narrowed front and back
The back has been lowered
A hook and eye has been added to the top of the zip at the back
