The Dress

Madeline Gardner, New York.French Lace & Tulle Wedding Dress

A stunningly beautiful and timeless confection of finest French lace and organza. The weight of this gown with its creamy lace & pale caramel underskirt add a touch of warmth that make it perfect for the cooler months.

This dress has an exquisite Royal Wedding style train, fit for even the stateliest of venues. It's the sort of fairy-tale dress that a little girl's dreams are made of.

The ivory tulle skirt and strapless bodice, which features a romantic sweetheart neckline, are
embellished with a wide border hemline of delicate Alençon lace, or point d'Alençon,
a needle lace that is sometimes called the "Queen of Lace."

Beneath this, four delicate layers of tulle overlay a pale caramel coloured satiny underskirt.

Covered button details decorate the back. The dress has been tried on but never worn. Still has the original tags.

Note: Although the label says size 14, the dress is actually a UK size 10 so please note the sizing carefully. I have done my best to be as accurate as I can: It has never been worn at a wedding- BUT NOTE that this was a showroom dress so would benefit from a professional clean. This is reflected in the price.
