The Dress

An exquisitely detailed hand made lace and beaded original Mariana Hardwick garment, Melbourne designer. I wore this dress for my wedding in November 2015. I felt so glamorous and elegant and had so many comments on how unique my dress was. After trying on so many dresses, none of them compared to this, I absolutely love this dress. Like many others, I don't want to waste this beauty in my cupboard, I would love for someone else to give it a new life.

This dress is in two pieces sold together:
-Mariana Hardwick Slip: Silk and light boning to ribs and bust (bought for $600.00)
-Mariana Hardwick Dress: Exquisite French lace and hand beading covers the entire dress. The dress has a small train. (bought for ($2,859.00)

The garment is a 10AU. I usually wear size 10 in everyday clothing.

I am a D cup size and did not wear a bra as boning and thin layer of padding was enough support. If you had a smaller cup size you may be about to wear a strapless bra. I am 175 cm tall and wore small wedged heels with this dress - the dress just touched the floor.

There have been no alterations made to it, there is a slight discolouration to the small train of the dress, not noticeable when on.

The dress was immediately professionally dry cleaned and had been in storage since the wedding.

This is an absolutely stunning dress. May you love it as I do...
