Beautiful Unique Sleeveless Illusion Lace Fit and Flare Wedding Dress
Milano Collection
I walked into Chic Parisien with my heart set on a long sleeve, tight-fitted lace dress. I laid eyes on the most beautiful strapless Berta.
They were able to make me a bolero that I could put over the dress to give it the long-sleeved look I wanted. The best part was I was able to have the long sleeve lace look I wanted for the ceremony & formalities and then remove the bolero for the strapless look during the reception & party.
The dress is absolutely stunning and any girl's dream. It gives the most amazing shape & has beautiful flower details. The dress originally had boning and a corset look. I wanted to remove the corset look on the back and just have sheer to give the illusion that my back was out. The zipper obviously was moved to the side of the dress so that it wouldn’t show on the back. Instead, buttons were placed down the spine and at the wrists of the bolero.
We did do quite a bit of alterations to the dress to remove the boning/corset look. The back is now completely out but with sheer cover to help hold everything up and in place.
Tag says it’s size 42 - I’m usually a size 6 in regular sizing.
The Mantilla Veil was the perfect finishing touch on the entire look.
Dior Chantilly Lace Extra Cathedral can be purchased for an additional $900.
