The Dress
It was love at first sight when I first spotted the Vera Wang "Gemma" dress. Her dresses are stunning pieces of art but the Gemma dress in particular is really something special. It's so easy to see why it is popular and is still one of the most highly sought after dresses years after Hilary Duff wore it at her own wedding.
This is an opportunity for you to own an authentic dress by Vera Wang from her classic collection, and at a fraction of the retail price. I absolutely love it and it has taken me 2 years to decide it was time to be loved by another bride.
This dress is a size US 6 and my street size is AU 8. It has temporary alterations which can be returned to its original condition. I'm 165cm & wore 12 cm heels and the dress length was perfect (didn't need to be taken up. The dress is in pristine condition as I only wore it for 4 hours at the ceremony and changed into a reception dress afterwards.
This dress is absolutely gorgeous; very ethereal and romantic with soft French tulle and organza rosettes. It is structured in the bodice and drapes you all in the right places so it is really flattering and slimming. It is ivory with ivory blizzard beading in the skirt. It has an invisible zip at the back, and i had a 3-point bustle added. It was also incredibly comfortable to wear!
Here is Vera Wang's description of Gemma:
There are so many beautiful aspects to the Gemma gown. Perhaps the most otherworldly element is the ethereal combination of French tulle and organza, something you wouldn’t expect in a gown with such a defined mermaid silhouette. It’s an absolute celebration of volume that is meant to be very dramatic, with the fantasy of a ball gown and the sensuousness of a mermaid gown combined. If you desire even more drama, a bride might choose to add a sequined belt for just a little flicker of beading, to really highlight the waist. Combined with the shimmer of sequins in the cut blossoms of the skirt, it’s a very dynamic look from every angle.Gemma is one of my more glamorous dresses, giving the bride something slender and sleek up top, and at the bottom the flash and splash of sequins and dynamic volume, for the ultimate wedding day spectacle.
It was professionally altered by renowned alterationist Dana's Bridal who has won several awards. It has a 3-point bustle, hoop sewn into the skirt (so the dress doesn't stick to your legs & gives it a more mermaid silhouette), b cup bra cups, and tapered around the thighs for a better fit. ALL alterations are temporary and can be easily returned into its original condition
It has been professionally dry cleaned and kept in the garment bag since. No flaws. It is in perfect condition with no signs of wear on the outside. There is a few signs of wear under the train but you cannot see it at all when worn and is barely visible even when you lift it and point it out (but at what point would anyone lift and flip the train on their big day anyway)
