The Dress

I am the second owner to have the privilege of getting married in this beautiful custom made Anna Campbell wedding gown, featuring the 'Camille' bust with a v neck line. Embellished with pearls, beads and Swarovski crystals. The bust size is for a D cup, (possibly for a C or DD). A slight cap sleeve of the beaded fabric drapes over the front of the shoulders. The back is a wrap with elastic and therefore adjustable to suit roughly sizes 8-12. The skirt features the 'Natalie' skirt with a brocade hem up the middle to about the knee.

The skirt is a very subtle blush pink tone with an ivory silk overlay. It also has a train which can be fastened up underneath the bow with a button to create a soft bustle which is how I wore it.

I'm 164cm and wore 5cm heels on the day and the dress touched the ground. It was easy to walk in and did not drag on the ground. Flat shoes could have been worn.

The gown has been professionally dry cleaned by Bentley's in Parnell, Auckland and is looking like new again. It has a small brown stain on the inside under the bust from self tan. This can't be seen when wearing the dress.

This dress is far too stunning to sit in my cupboard, so I'm hoping to pass it onto another lucky bride who'll feel just as amazing as I did on my wedding day. I got so many compliments too because it's so original. A one-of-a-kind piece! - Perfect for a beach wedding. It was so comfortable I didn't need to get changed after the reception.

Only very slight (less than 5 cent piece size) tear in silk fabric near the button on the train. There are some teeny tiny marks on the bottom of the silk at the back, but you need to be up very close and really studying it to even see them.
