This is a brand new, never-worn dress that I purchased from a boutique in Milwaukee, WI in 2021. It has never been altered. I fell in love with this dress because it of the lace floral details that fit the summery vibe of my planned June outdoor wedding.
It has a heavy satin undertrain, then several layers of tulle that create a full A-line silhouette. The bodice includes a built-in bra that secures in the back to provide support and comfort. This creates a form-fitting top and billowing skirt, which feels summery yet fits with a formal wedding.
Unfortunately, I ended up choosing a different dress after purchasing this one because I wanted something more modest for the religious part of our ceremony.
I did buy a lace bolero (with pearl buttons along the back) to go with this dress, which originally cost $300, is also shown in one of the images, and can be INCLUDED with the dress if the buyer would like the option to cover their shoulders.
Description from the website: A picture-perfect and fit for a princess – Matilda offers brides-to-be a silhouetted ball gown that draws from European elegance. Sheaths of tulle embody the gown which is covered in intricate ivory speckles from bodice to hem. Large rose buds and floral appliqués flourish the hemline and are positioned scarcely across Matilda. Her bodice is fitted and accentuated by a sweetheart neckline that dips low. Her skirt being fuller, billows in swathes of sheer soft tulle as she makes her grand entrance, leaving an even bigger final impression. Matilda has a simple back curving with the dress with an invisible zip making her comfortable and easy for her bride to slip in and out of. She is one of sheer beauty and luxury which is emulated in the quality and purity of lace especially once she adorns a custom cathedral length Matilda veil that carries out matching lace. As she swirls into the night, Matilda gives her bride the fairy tale ending, she only dreamed of.
