I bought this dress at a wedding dress shop in Burlingame, California. It is a Reem Acra gown and it was very unique because of the organic form and several types of silk used: Italian silk tulle (skirt area), silk organza and silk taffetta (top).What makes this dress very special is that it is a full typical bridal gown but because the fabric is so luxurious, it provides volume without weight. I have a small frame and was able to not look overwhelmed by the gown and could even wear it on the beach. The rest has not been altered. I am almost 5’8″ and the length is perfect with 2-3 inch heels.
I had it taken it and put new silk from MOOD on the top. The rest has not been altered by myself. There are hooks in the back to pull up the dress after the ceremony. The length has not been altered.
It was dry cleaned in California There are two light very very very faint marks on the front and back of the bodice that are not noticable but that is why it is so discounted. The two small marks on the bodice could be dry cleaned again and would be removed.
