Gorgeous Shimmering Sweetheart Lace A-Line Wedding Dress
Liri Collection
I bought this dress for my 2020 wedding but because of the pandemic, we had the wedding this year (May 25th to be exact) It was nicely packaged by the wedding dress store employee in the box so it didn't see any sunlight until early this year to add bustle and to be cut. Hence, no discoloration of the dress due to sunlight.
I fell in love with this dress because of its laced corset top and multiple layers of tulle. It just looked so romantic and feminine. I wanted something subtle and not over the top but still had the glow. Also, the color is not harsh white which I really liked a lot - it's slightly ivory and the top corset has a nude color layer. I substituted the lace layer with a shimmering layer: it looked really pretty under the light. Skirt had 6 layers ( 1 under layer + 1 shimmering tulle + 4 regular tulle) so it's fluffy enough but not too big. I also liked that shoulder cuffs are removable: clips are clear so it's almost invisible.
Condition: I didn't get it dry-cleaned because I didn't think it needed it - it's in excellent condition. There are no visible stains - both my husband and I checked. There might be a few very faint stains on the most inner layer if you look really close. Tulle layers are in perfect condition in my opinion. I only wore this dress for the photo shoot, ceremony, and for the dinner - no dancing. Because this is a tulle dress there are no visible stains on the dress. - I can provide more detailed photos if needed. I still have the original wedding dress box and the garment cover.
Alterations: I added the bustle and cut to fit 5'7"-5'8".
Designer Description: Melody is everything you dreamed of and more! Her lace bodice features a sweetheart neckline with modern hanging sleeves for a romantic look. The tulle voluminous skirt creates drama for a bride who dares to be bold.
