Galia Lahav, Madonna

Galia Lahav Madonna Dress from The Empress Collection: Embroidered lace voluminous dress, sheer back with a bejeweled lace.

This dress was custom made and was only worn once for my wedding on 31st July, 2015. As the dress is custom made there is no size on the tag, but can best be described as a UK size 8. The lace has some stretch, which means that the dress can be tight fitted without being uncomfortable - also leaving room for sitting and dancing!

I am a 34B cup and had pads sewn into the dress so it can accommodate up to a full C cup with these pads removed. I am 5'6" and wore a 2.5" heel (Jimmy Choo Isabel UK size 5, also available for sale).

My alterations included an over bustle for the train, which was connected by 3 eyelet hooks, so that the dress could be fastened up (for dancing or longer walking periods outside), and a finger loop so that it could be carried.

This dress was purchased without the Galia Lahav train. I purchased a separate veil, which matches the lace of the gown. This is available for purchase upon request. Picture of the veil included.

The dress has been professionally cleaned and is in excellent, ready to wear condition.

The Madonna truly is an amazing gown. The intricacy of the lace is stunning and I received so many compliments on my wedding day and have done since from photos! The back of the dress truly wowed my guests and made me feel so special. I am sure it will make another bride feel as beautiful as I did on my wedding day.

Please feel free to message me if you have any questions or require more photos. I have the original receipt, Galia Lahav tags, hanger and gown bag. The dress was purchased from Serendipity Brides in Weedon, Northamptonshire.

I am open to sensible offers.
