The Dress

Monique Lhuillier 2020 Maeve Dress features thin Spaghetti Staps with a V-Neck and Low Back., and FREE VEIL ($300 retail). This dress is absolutely stunning, and truly makes a statement. No other dress compares to this one. I bought the dress at Ivory and White in Birmingham, Alabama and all of the alterations were professionally done by their seamstress.

This dress was so comfortable and does not wrinkle at all. It photographs beautifully, and it was so much fun to spin on the dance floor in this dress (see video). This dress will make you feel like a princess!

This dress was originally purchased in 2020, however, our wedding was pushed to 2021 due to Covid. After our wedding, the dress was professionally cleaned. Getting to wear this dress was truly a dream come true. Every time I went in for alterations, I fell in love with this dress all over again. I received so many compliments on this truly timeless and classic dress.

Alterations

Since I was between sizes, the dress was taken in at the waist, and the spaghetti straps were also shortened. We did have to take a slight bit of the length off as I am only 5'3" and wore 2inch heels.
