Morilee Bridal Elegant Venice Lace Bodice On Classic Tulle Wedding Dress
Designed by Madeline Gardner
"An exquisite Venice lace bodice makes this timeless Bridal Dress simply stunning."
Professionally cleaned and preserved wedding dress. Worn once in March 2016 for my wedding day, then preserved professionally in Jan 2017. Box had not been opened since, but I opened it on 7/27/2021 to take more accurate measurements.
It is in pristine condition; the same as when it was cleaned and preserved.
- No damage to the dress.
- No stains.
Sold together with the veil.
Dress Style: This is a feminine ballgown with a fluffy tulle skirt and a lace overlay on the bodice. The lace pattern has a delicate vibe that reminds me of seashells on the edges, which is why I fell in love with it. It is comfortable to wear, easy to move around in, and is detailed enough to wear with simple accessories for a minimalistic look, but also simple enough to add detailed accessories too so the bride can customize her look however she wants.
I bought this dress right after getting engaged; before any of the wedding was planned or the venue was chosen. I loved this dress because I felt like I had a lot I could work with, no matter which direction we took with the planning of the wedding. I paired this with pearls and a slightly detailed, mid-length veil (included in this purchase).
I'm a petite girl, so I had a few alterations done, but it fit perfectly. Measurements: As I mentioned, I am petite. I am 5'3" tall, 161 cm, slim, and weigh about 103 lbs. I'm an hourglass shape, and slightly pear-shaped.
- MY measurements are as follows: Bust- 31" Waist- 23.5" Hip- 36" I took measurements of the dress while it was on the hanger and also while I wore it.
- Measurements ON THE HANGER: Bust- 32" Waist- 25" Hip (lowest part of bodice) - 30" Length, from top of bodice to front hem- 52" Length, from top of the FRONT of the bodice to the train hem- 82".
- Measurements WHILE WORN BY ME: Bust- 32" Waist- 25" Hip (lowest part of the bodice, slightly puffed)- 32" Length, STRAIGHT down from the top of bodice to front hem- 48".
The train can be bustled and has a button and loop underneath the layers. I wore this with sandals since it was a beach-themed wedding. No heels were worn, so it was altered accordingly.
Details:
- Delicate lace overlay
- Layers on the skirt for fluffy volume
- Zips up the back, but has buttons to cover the zipper
- No cups or molding in the bodice - Ivory color
Veil details: - Mid-length veil with beading details on the edges - beaded chiffon flowers throughout the veil - back is longer than the piece that hangs over your face, adding extra detail when they are layered in the back - only the front layer has beaded chiffon flower details; the back does not, so it doesn't look busy - Length of veil (back/bottom layer)- 36" - Length of the veil (front/top layer)- 21".
