About the Dress

The most incredible and flattering Vivienne Westwood Galaxy Cape gown with Charming Roses embroidered cape. It has the classic galaxy cape sculpted scoop neckline boned corset and gorgeous draped skirt.

I loved that this was a more unique version of such a classic dress. The rose embellished fabric is SO beautiful (and I haven’t seen anyone else with this dress before).

The dress was bought from The White Gallery and was only worn for a few hours during the ceremony and start of reception. It has been professionally dry cleaned.

Alterations were done by Elite Alterations (she’s amazing and Vivienne Westwood sponsored part of her fashion degree).
