I purchased this dress brand new from Riva Bridal in 2024. I adored wearing it and felt it was elegant, modern and timeless. The base of this dress is called the Siren. It's currently on the website: https://rivabridal.com/products/siren-strapless-satin-wedding-dress.
I had customisations made by adding the 'girl crush' sleeves and the tie-up across the shoulder band. I also had over-the-shoulder straps added (1.5-2cm wide). These were hidden inside the dress during the ceremony. After the ceremony and post-ceremony photos, the girl crush sleeves and band could be removed and the straps worn for a 'second look' reception dress. All these customisations were in the same material at the Siren dress.
I wore shoes that were 2 inches (5cm) and I’m 173cm tall.
I'm also selling the veil which complemented the dress beautifully and was light and comfortable to wear. It's called the 'Sweet Romance' and is currently available on the website: https://rivabridal.com/products/sweet-romance-veil
I'm selling all of these items together.
The only minor wear is a tiny bit of catching on the fabric in the bust area. This is pretty minimal and wouldn't show up in photos. Happy to send a close up of this if you would like to see it.
The dress has been dry cleaned and is still in great condition.
I will be sad to say goodbye to a dress I truly loved wearing, but hopefully it can make another bride happy on her big day. I'm open to offers.
