Elegant Lace Mermaid Wedding Dress
From the Anthropologie website: This elegantly fitted gown features an intricate lace bodice with a plunging neckline and long, sheer sleeves. A tailored crepe skirt lends a modern edge, while scalloped lace trim and a button back provide charming detail.
I absolutely fell in love with this gown the first time I put it on. The plunging deep v in the front is super flattering, while the sheer fabric overlay on the chest gave the gown a more modest feel. The perfect blend of sultry, sophisticated, modern, and romantic. Perfect for my outdoor coastal redwoods wedding in Sonoma!
This dress was lovingly tailored ($700 worth!) at a local top-rated shop, with a french bustle added (for ease of dancing!), along with a silk satin ribbon to the waistline to give the gown a little pop. B cups were also added in so that a bra would not be needed. My final height/length of dress with heels was 5'4 and 3/4 inches (so nearly 5'5).
