Beautiful Long Sleeve Lace Beaded Strappy Back Ball Gown
Size 16 in bridal. Street size 12/14.
Alterations:
- Hemmed to a petite bride, 5’5 with heels. The hem is on the longer side, sweeping the floor, and could likely be worn by someone slightly taller. The train is quite luxurious but could potentially be repurposed for length.
- The original dress was taken in at the waist and slightly through the bust. Breast cups are easily removable.
- The shoulders were also slightly altered to be a little shorter. The dress can of course be taken in further and can be let out in bust and waist.
- Gorgeous custom back added. Illusion fabric and crystal button fill in the previously open back. Creates a smoothing effect and the buttons draw the eye up the back.
- Additional lace appliqués were added to the skirt front and extra beadwork was added for that sparkle effect!
These beautiful embellishments make it one of a kind. Enjoy the glamour of a long train and then tie it up with a secure multi-point bustle.
The sheer long illusion sleeves give this dress an elegant look while still being a little sexy.

From the Designer: This modern, long-sleeve ballgown from Essense of Australia is the perfect gown for the modern-day bride. Artfully-placed lace accentuates the bodice of this style, creating a high neckline – with cutouts – that extends down into long, lace sleeves. The ornate, lace detailing from the bodice extends slightly onto the gown’s skirt before it extends effortlessly into a ballgown silhouette. The back of this dress features a beaded, strappy back — something that is so unique for a ballgown. A breathtaking train, complete with lace detailing, finishes the look. The back of this long-sleeve ballgown zips up beneath crystal buttons.
