ABOUT MY DRESS

I purchased this dress from StillWhite and I believe my wedding was it’s third trip down the aisle! The dress is stretchy, flattering and so comfortable (I’m a 103cm hip and it still fit great!). I didn’t want to take it off all night! I love that the lace design has a modern look. The split was fab and made it much easier to get around on our big day. No alterations have been made except that a bustle was added by a seamstress. The dress is in great, near new condition with only slight discolouration of the lining at the hem, and slight fraying of the lace at the hem. If you’re taking it up it won’t be a problem but after it’s dry clean it looks near new. It was in a similar condition when I purchased it and it didn’t bother me one bit as when it’s on you can’t tell! The dress has been dry cleaned since my wedding. Further pictures can be provided if you would like to see more of this stunner!

WEDDING DRESS FEATURES

Not too casual, not too formal – this gown gets it just right. With a deep V neck and exaggerated hourglass shape, it flatters almost any body and works for almost any style of wedding.

FIT, FEEL, COLOUR, AND FABRIC

Graphic lace, inspired by the fountains and gardens of Dubai, is the stand-out feature of this gorgeous gown.

The lightly corseted, slightly translucent bodice features a deep V neckline at the front and the back. The gown clings to showcase your waist and bottom, then flares out just above the knee to showcase the sexy, lace-edged split.

The back features fabric-wrapped buttons, and more lace trims a small sweep train.

STYLIST’S NOTES

The classic look of this gown means you have plenty of styling options.

Because the bodice is quite simply structured, you can choose whether to have your hair cascading over your shoulders or in a smooth, sophisticated up-do. Choose a statement necklace to work with the deep V neck.

The leg split gives you a chance to show off your shoes, so make sure they’re amazing – a metallic or bright heel would look gorgeous against the white lace.
