The Dress

THE DESIGNER

Born to a talented pattern and dressmaker, Luci di Bella’s love for fabrics and fashion started in a made to measure workroom in a small Italian town. Now she travels to Europe every year and returns to Melbourne inspired by fashion fairs, fabric makers, art exhibitions and jazz festivals. For Luci di Bella, ‘Fashion is Art.’

She believes that your wedding gown has to suit your shape, your personality and your venue.

MY BRIEF

I was very particular with what I wanted, and had a few prerequisites for my dress:
1. I did not want to look like a 'traditional' bride. The reception was at a winery in Red Hill, and I wanted to fit in with the relaxed setting.
2. I wanted to show off my thin frame and curvaceous backside and look sexy, without looking cheap and tacky!
3. I didn't want to drown in my dress (ie look like a horrible giant meringue)
4. I wanted it to be backless/semi-backless
5. I wanted to party all night and feel totally comfortable

I am by no means an emotional person but I must admit, I did shed I tear when I first tried this dress on. It was just perfect for my small frame. I just drowned in other dresses. This amazing dress showed off my curves in all the right places, and was the COMFIEST wedding dress I had tried on - it was like wearing a silk nightgown!! And an added bonus - I didn't need anyone to help me take the whole dress off to go to the bathroom!

My husband and guests to this day still talk about how amazing the dress was. It was simple, but it sure had that WOW factor. I honestly felt so sexy in it!

The dress has a small train that flows gracefully at the back, and has a bias cut to allow the material to move with you. The intricate beading on the back of the dress is absolutely stunning, and there is a line of beading under the bust. The dress has an invisible side zip.

The train can be hooked up/has a loop hole to put around your wrist when it's time to dance.

SIZING

I am approx 170cm tall and wore 9.5cm heels- the hem of the dress was shortened so it just skimmed the ground. I am an Australian size 8 and wear a 12B bra. There are padded cups sewn into the dress which can be removed if required.

PRICE

I paid $4,200 for this dress, which is in pristine condition as it has only been worn once, for a late afternoon church ceremony and indoor reception. I wore the dress on the 2nd of November 2014 and had it professionally dry cleaned a few days after the wedding.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, or would like to arrange a fitting in either Mount Waverley or Blackburn South.

ALTERATIONS

Straps were shortened to fit - I have narrow shoulders.
Hem was shortened.
