Beautiful Classic V-Neck A-Line Wedding Dress
This is an absolutely gorgeous, classic dress that is flattering around the waist and has exquisite beading and embroidery detail. My favorite part is the illusion back, which was by far the most unique backing I saw while dress shopping -- it photographs beautifully as well.
The dress also has exquisite movement, which will make dancing super fun. It's a little flirty with a low-cut top but still classy enough that you can wear it in front of your grandparents :) I hope that it makes your wedding day as special as it did mine.
Alterations:
I removed two layers of crinoline from the dress to make it more of an A-line fit, rather than bell-shaped. The dress was also altered at Kleinfeld's to tighten the bust slightly and raise the hem an inch or so.
The dress was repaired after the wedding by a professional tailor to mend minor ripping, caused by some hearty dancing :)
