Martina Liana Style 1697

I wore this as my reception dress so it has only been worn for a couple of hours. The only alterations made were that we shortened the straps by probably about .5 inch on each side and cut the train so that the dress is more straight/floor length. I wanted it functional for walking and dancing and it definitely was (see last photo). I am 5”9 for reference. My measurements were 43” bust, 36”waist, and 51” inch hip. We added cups to the breast area for support without a bra but these can easily be removed by an alterations shop. I generally wear a street size 14/16 and this dress is a wedding size 20. You could easily take it in. However - it does also have nice stretch! The underlining is a stretchy spandex material similar to that of the viral SKIMS dress. This dress is very detailed and a bit delicate. For that reason I am not having it cleaned and will let the purchaser be responsible for doing so with a professional cleaner of their choice. “A striking column silhouette adorned in sparkling embellished lace catches every ray of light down the aisle. Style 1697 features elegant spaghetti straps that suspend from a gently scooped neckline, effortlessly draped across the bust to highlight the figure. Sultry side cutouts join a gorgeously low illusion pearl-adorned back detail that introduces the soft ruched hip of the fitted sheath skirt. Exuding sophistication and glamour with every movement, this sexy column wedding gown is a true showstopper.”
