The Dress

The Story

I’m selling my gorgeous Ivory Grace Loves Lace Alexandra Gown. Featuring 120cm train, fingerloop and button for bustle. I fell inlove with this dress from the moment I tried it on. The stretch lace that fitted my curves perfectly, the split up the middle that gave an edge of sexiness and the high neck that countered that by being a little more conservative and of course the beautiful open back. All these things made me feel like the most beautiful bride in the world on my wedding day. My husband thought it was absolutely stunning too. Not one person didn’t compliment the style of dress. We had a really sweet garden wedding during the day and the dress was only worn for around 8 hours. It is currently at the dry cleaners being cleaned.

Grace Loves Lace write up- The Alexandra is for the woman who is a showstopper – she wants to look striking and feminine, but in a sophisticated and understated way. Our Alexandra was made for the GLL woman we all want to be – she is confident, but modest, she is an effortless, natural beauty – she has it all. The Alexandra gown is all about the beautifully balanced silhouette, which highlights the female shape in an elegant and subtle way. The Alexandra has been handmade from soft, lightweight French lace and features hand cut lace applique on every edge. Beginning with a flattering high neck with a plunging V-neck lining and built in cups, the Alexandra has a daringly low, yet wearable open back, which is secured with a single satin button at the neckline. We love the dramatic fishtail skirt, which has a centre front opening and large back godet, with a stunning 120cm train. A concealed finger loop is featured. The 120cm train length also provides a bustle to keep you moving and dancing all night.
