Beautiful Vera Wang Luxe Alice tulle gown is a work of art, with
overlay of bias silk taffeta bands and textured floral corsage at waist. The
back is as gorgeous as the front, with covered buttons the full length
of the dress. Lightweight, slimming, and sophisticated in every way, the
dress is made of multiple layers of lightweight silk. My photographer
said this was one of the most unique dresses he had seen. It was a very
vintage Anthropologie feel with all the quality of Vera Wang. Message for
more pictures.
I had the dress hemmed, taken in at the hips and
bust (current measurements are below), had cap sleeves/straps added out
of matching silk net fabric, had a three-point bustle made, and had
b-cups
put in. All are included, but can be easily removed as well. There is
room with the fabric to go up by one size (street size 8/9) or to go
down 1-2 sizes (street size 2-4) without compromising the structure or
silhouette of the dress. The work was done by the best Bridal seamstress
in the Boston area and
is flawless.
The gown was worn gently twice: once at my
wedding, and the next day for photos. It is in excellent condition with
no signs of wear after cleaning and preservation.
