The Dress
Custom made design, featuring the hand beaded "Ava" bodice, a beautiful beaded belt to compliment the flattering "Kitty" satin skirt from ethical Australian designer Karen Willis Holmes. Sweetheart neckline and a train make this a very elegant wedding dress for your special day, I wore this dress with a two teired chapel length veil (happy to include for free with dress sale). This gown served me so well on mine!
The hand beading is divine, delicate and beautiful. Not the cheap and bulky designs you can see available. I wanted to find a dress made with love, under ethical conditions, knowing that my dress caused no one any harm and was not made cheaply under terrible labor conditions. We had a beautiful vegan wedding too, so this dress is completely cruelty free!
The back has a fully concealed zipper in the skirt and then hooks at the top (which could be adjusted) and laces up the back. This offers a bit of room either side on the sizing front. It is a size AUD 12- 14, mainly a 14 for my bust - I am a 36/38DD/E and more of a 12 around the waist. However you could lace this up tighter for a smaller bust and have the skirt adjusted too.
I have used some of our professional photos from Everoxphotography - just to be sure I am crediting our amazing wedding photographer wherever her photos are used :)
This has been dry-cleaned within the week by an eco-friendly drycleaner. There are no stains or marks, there is some roughage at the bottom of the dress from being worn outside. This is not very noticeable .
I took off some length at the front (it has been hemmed) and added a French bustle, which keeps the smooth lines of the dress. These alterations were all done by a qualified wedding dress alterations specialist.
