The Dress

Stunning Ronald Joyce lace and tulle gown with lace motifs scattered across the skirts, merging into a softly boned bodice with illusion neckline. Bodice includes bead, pearl and diamanté belt detailing.

Worn in September 2016 for my wedding and fully dry-cleaned afterwards. From a smoke- and pet-free home and sold with a protective garment bag.
Fits as an accurate size 12 with minimal alteration by a professional bridal seamstress; length taken up, bra ribbons placed and ribbon ties added to allow skirts to be gathered up. Size and fit of dress has not been altered. I am 5 foot 5 and post-alteration it grazed the floor when wearing 2 inch heels.

In excellent condition; there is a small 1-2 inch defect in the outermost tulle skirt layer over the left hip where the lace applicate has come away from the tulle beneath. This is barely noticeable because of the multiple layers of identical tulle underneath - each time I go to look for it it takes me a while to find it again!! There are some small defects in the tulle around each shoulder, again where the lace appliqué attaches to the tulle of the illusion neckline. A seamstress would be able to make these repairs no problem.

If you are interested, or require more information or photographs, please don't hesitate to get in touch particularly if you wish to view the dress in person and try it on.
