Romantic Off-the-Shoulder Lace & Tulle Off-the-Shoulder A-Line Wedding Dress
The moment I put it on, I fell in love with this beautiful off-the-shoulder lace dress and felt that the mocha-colored lining naturally complemented my warm-toned skin without the dress appearing 'too white'. As with the original design, the back of the bottom of the dress is slightly longer than the front to create a chapel-length train (3-4 feet).
Alterations: The few alterations that were done were shortening the detachable sleeves, hemming six inches off the bottom to graze the floor with my 5'5" height (while wearing heels), and slightly taking in the bust area to accommodate the weight I lost prior to the wedding.
Condition: I only wore the dress once for photos before the ceremony and during the ceremony. I changed into a different dress for the dancing portion of our reception so the dress does not have any blemishes, staining, or tears. It was professionally cleaned after the wedding and would only need to be steamed before use.
Designer Description: In keeping with her environment, ELORA is the ultimate garden wedding gown. A creature of sheer romance, she embodies the natural world through the use of a floral motif that adorns almost every inch of her bodice and hides among the many layers of her tulle skirt.
Given a unique character with the addition of soft off-shoulder straps, she takes on a truly romantic feel that is upheld by almost every element of her design. With romance in mind, she is finished with a leafy sweetheart neckline that descends into a slightly lowered back.
