The Anne Barge Blue Willow Confetti dress is a modified sweetheart full A-line gown featuring allover 3D leaf embroidery. The dress is strapless, but is very supportive in the bust area. It also comes with two all over 3D leaf embroidery straps that easily snap on and off. I loved how the straps looked but took them off for dancing during the reception so I could have a little more flexibility. The dress was professionally altered to be shortened and taken in at the bust and waist. The tag on the dress says 12 but it was altered to fit somewhere between a size 8 and 6. I am 5'2 without heels, 5'5 with heels, and was ~135 lbs at the time of alterations. We also removed 2 layers of crinoline to reduce the weight of the dress and to let the skirt be a little less structured and drape a little more naturally. This also made it a lot easier to dance and twirl around! The dress has a French bustle and was very straightforward for my maid of honor to bustle as each string is numbered. The dress has been professionally cleaned and is stain free.

This is my dream dress - it was the first dress I ever tried on and I went home with it that day! The silhouette feels so timeless and I truly felt like a capital B bride wearing it. I hope the next bride that wears it feels just as elegant and beautiful as I did on my wedding day!
