The illusion neckline held up brilliantly and the appliqués are sewn on really well. I did have my mum help me steam it on the morning because it got a bit creased in the dress bag, but after that it looked flawless. It looks far more expensive than it actually is and photographs beautifully.

I opened the parcel today and I'm absolutely speechless. The matte satin drapes beautifully and the lace appliqués on the sleeves are just gorgeous. I was a bit worried it might look cheap, but it looks like it's from an expensive boutique. Highly recommended!

The fishtail shape is incredibly flattering and the lace detailing on the neckline looks lovely in person. It's a bit long on me even with heels, so I'll definitely need to get it taken up before the big day. Also, the sleeves are a tad snug around my shoulders, but nothing too major. Overall, it's a stunning gown for the price and I can't wait to wear it once the alterations are sorted.

so i wore this round the house to test it out before the big day. walking in the fishtail skirt is actually quite easy! sitting down to eat might be a bit snug around the hips but nothing major. the appliques on the sleeves are absolutely stunning. knocked off a star because the train gets dirty so quickly on my wooden floors lol, but the quality is brilliant for what i paid.

my tailor said the fabric is a dream to work with! having it taken in at the waist a bit. the appliqués are stunning in the flesh. knocked off a star because the packaging was really flimsy.
