Answer 2

I don't have a picture of it because it hasn't been made yet; but I have already designed it and my mom is going to start working on it in January (she just made my sisters wedding dress for her August wedding, so she needs a little break!)

It will be an all-over ivory lace, mermaid silhouette gown with an empire waist and little cap sleeves in lace as well (think Elizabeth Bennett from the AE Pride and Prejudice mini-series). The bottom, where it puffs out will be really puffy and exaggerated, and the train will be just longer than a typical chapel length. At the empire waist there will be a dark pink velvet "ribbon" about 2 inches wide with a formed (not tied) bow at the back. Starting at the top of where the volume of the skirt begins (it is a mermaid style skirt, so at the knees) there will be another formed bow in pink velvet. Then there will be two more below that in the middle and then at the base of the train (like in a line down the centre of the train). Those two will be detachable so that when the train is bustled they will not be on the dress.

The bustle will start behind the knees with the velvet bow at the top centre, and the train will be folded so that it hangs straight with side pleats down the back of my legs.

It's kind of hard to describe, but I've worked out the design with my mom, and I can't image walking down the aisle or dancing my first dance in any other dress. I will definitely post pictures when it's under construction.

I was going to have two dresses (one for the ceremony and one without a train for the reception) but after I designed this one for the reception, I love it so much (and the look of the mermaid style bustle) that I wanted it to have a train and to wear it the whole day.

I wish that I could even post some of my sketches of it (my description does not do it justice) but they are just pencil drawings and sample fabrics tacked to a board at this point.

Answer 3

This is mine. It is the one that made everyone say "wow." It's much more detailed up close.

Answer 4

Your not suppose to tell! Only you and your mother and even your grandmother can no. But no one else. Don't ruin it! As long as you are happy with it. Remember this is, after all, THE BRIDES day! x0

It's actually more beautiful in person ! The one thing I absolutely wanted was a detachable train. Everyone I know has had problems with their bustles, so, I didn't want to deal with that.

Dropped waist, clean and simple, with one unique twist under the bust. I'll be getting it in ivory and wearing black shoes with a bow:

Champagne satin, a-line, chapel train, beaded straps, basque waist. The entire bodice is beaded quite extravagantly and there is a 3" border of beading at the hem. The back dips low. I am in love with the dress and can't wait to wear it!!! ( =
