The Dress

This gorgeous wedding dress was purchased from Samila Bridal and Formal in Seattle Washington in 2018. The dress was originally $2600+ tax.

It is all lace with built in slip and support - fit / flair added, Mermaid style and handmade by Casablanca Bridal. Bone corset bodice, real Swarovski crystal inlay on chest. Sparkles radiantly in the sun and in the light (extra sparkly for an outdoor wedding)! Sweetheart cut neckline with built in bust support (extra was installed). Ivory color family. Very comfortable to wear, bustle worked great! Fun to dance in! Beautiful in pictures! Even better in person. Dress train is about 2-3 feet.

Added bonus: I was able to use the bathroom by myself and could - for the most part - get in and out of the dress without help!

The veil is hand sewn lace and dramatically trails behind dress about 5-6 feet! Chose to have a longer veil. Matching color and embroidered beading on veil and dress. Both go together stunningly! Attaches to hair with a comb. I also in the Ivory color family and is very light and comfortable!

The dress was formal dry cleaned, detailed, and preserved right after wedding by Prestige Preservation from West Seattle Dry Cleaners. Only worn 1 time.

Dress was originally a little smaller but I gained an inch on the hips and bust. Lace up corset was added to conceal that my boobs had decided to grow from B cups to nearly D cups (very big C’s)... has a zipper under corset for added support. Ideal measurements would be B: 33, W: 27, H: 40. I am 5’8, curvy, and was 145-148 lbs at the time.
