I took this to my local seamstress just to have a look, and she was genuinely impressed by the quality of the stitching and the lining. The chapel train adds such an elegant touch without being overly heavy or difficult to manage. You can tell a lot of care went into making it. The satin has a gorgeous subtle sheen that looks incredibly expensive in person. Honestly, it is a proper bargain for such high-quality workmanship.

The dress is lovely and the A-line shape is very flattering. Just a heads up, the satin does need a really good steam once you take it out of the bag. It took me ages to get it looking perfectly smooth, but it looked nice enough afterwards.

My mum actually cried when I tried it on. Everyone thought I spent an absolute fortune on it. Looks smashing.

I was worried a gown with a train might feel like dragging a heavy duvet around, but it is surprisingly lightweight! I did a little practice dance in the living room and it swished beautifully. The sleeveless design gives you plenty of freedom to move your arms about. It just makes you feel like a proper princess without the hassle of a bulky skirt. So pleased I took the plunge and ordered it.

Absolutely thrilled with this dress! The satin feels incredibly soft against the skin, not scratchy at all. But the absolute best part? It has pockets! I managed to keep my lip gloss and a tissue tucked away without anyone noticing. It was so comfy to wear for the whole event, and the sweetheart neckline fits just right. Really gorgeous piece for the price.
