Galia Lahav, G-503

Characterized by 3D lace floral appliqués and crystals, this designer gown features an incredible train and delicate layers of silk tulle in the skirt. The dress is off-white with a pinkish ivory tone depending on the lighting. The custom made veil is included with the dress. The corset bodysuit construction allows it to fit street size 4-8, possibly a wider range. My weight fluctuated significantly between buying it and wearing it, but it fit me as a 4, 6, and 8.

Honestly this gown was beyond my wildest dreams. I saw it on another bride and knew it was the one. It was the first dress I tried and no others compared. It is shockingly comfortable and so beautiful. My photographer, a renowned wedding photographer in Montana, told me it was her favorite dress that year because it photographed so beautifully. The train was absolutely incredible, and the way the skirt moves is so elegant. Wearing a gown like this is a magical experience. It has truly ruined other dresses for me.

In certain lighting, the silhouette of the leg is visible with movement, which brings just a bit of sexiness to an otherwise princessy dress.

This dress has been cleaned but not dry cleaned, as the label forbids dry cleaning.

There are a few missing crystals and very small holes in the netting. It requires close inspection to see. There is minor yellowing of the glue used on the crystals. The hem of the bottom layer of the dress has minor gray staining. If you hemmed it, there would be no issue. There are no major flaws. This is reflected in the pricing.

Please note the bridal size may not be accurate. I cannot find a size on the tags of the dress, but the listing required I pick one. If I find one, I’ll update this. The street size is more accurate but, again, as a corset style dress, it will fit a range of sizes.
