Gorgeous gown which made me feel like a million dollars. The dress is beautifully beaded all over with very nice detail. This beading, I felt, gives a good coverage for someone who is not too body confident. The detailing on the back is buttons with a see through back with the beading still over to give a lovely detail from the back of the dress too. The dress has been shortened to fit a 5'6" bride with 3 inch heels and had some of the train removed so it is a little shorter than the original dress, but this made it easier to party the night away. The buttons have been reinforced also to give some extra strength, without altering the look of the dress and fitted to accommodate boobage so not original fit. No bra needed with the dress. These alterations have not changed the look of the dress and still looks like original dress. Dress was originally over £2,000, bought for £900 from salon as sample.
