Romantic Strapless Sweetheart Lace Fit and Flare Wedding Dress
This beautiful Essence of Australia dress was the very first dress I tried on and I was completely in love! At 5'10" and a curvy 180 pounds, I knew I was looking for something fitted and flattering that had a lot of personality, This dress is what curvy girl dreams are made of - hugging in all the right places and shimmering beautifully in all the pictures.
The stunning fit-and-flare dress features a plunging bodice, gorgeous detailed beading on top, a sparkling and figure-flattering waistband, and a tulle skirt that extends into a voluminous princess train. This dress is easy to slide into with a zipper closure under fabric-covered buttons.
Alterations were minimal. The bodice was taken in slightly and the area right before the flare was let out to release some of the boning ripples through the midsection. An American Bustle was added. I forgot to order a tall so I did not take any length off but was not able to wear heels.
Condition: This dress was professionally cleaned and preserved to maintain its appearance. The only notable blemish is the discoloring of a few of the buttons that were added for the bustle (these should be very easy to replace). Also, the last button covering the zipper will need to be resewn.
Designer Description: Curve-hugging linear lace on a plunging bodice make this stunning fit-and-flare wedding dress from Essense of Australia a top pick for the perfect wedding. Diamante embellishments sparkle from front to back on the figure-flattering waist band. The ethereal tulle skirt falls perfectly to the floor, extending into a breathtaking train. Choose from a corset closure or zipper closure under fabric-covered buttons.
