About the Dress

This dress deserves to be worn again and I hope the bride feels as amazing in it as I did. I did not change and had the dress on the entire day and just loved it. I took the cape off after our first dance early in reception and it was still light and easy to get around.

It has been professionally dry cleaned, it was purchased at Le Lourve in Melbourne and altered in house there. It was ordered in a UK8 but alterations were done to waist, bust and length and are shown in measurements. The waist flat measurement is 58cm but does have stretch and goes to about 61-62cm. It comes with VW garment bag and hanger. There are a few little marks/stains I have taken pictures from in the photos but they are not very noticeable and faint with the dry cleaning, same with the cape but the marks are more so toward the bottom. This is reflected in the price.

The Galaxy Cape is a new interpretation of the Galaxy dress, which was originally created for the red carpet, featuring a cinched waist and draped neckline inspired by the classic Vivienne Westwood Ball Tie gown. The gown is created in pearl white FSC-certified crepe satin, with a contrasting silk georgette drape across the décolletage, certified as organic, and 18th-century Watteau style train for added drama.

Below dress description:

This dress is made in crepe satin with a georgette cape certified as organic. The crepe satin comprises 73% acetate and 27% viscose, both certified by the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC). This guarantees wood fibres used in fabrics we source come from FSC™ certified forests that have been audited by a third-party on their environmental, social and economic standards. We also partner with Canopy to support their goal of protecting the world’s forests by working to eliminate Ancient and Endangered Forests from wood fibre sourcing for fabrics and packaging.
