The Dress

French designer Delphine Manivet really resonated with me as I find her dresses feminine, and oddly both modern and classic at the same time. I felt completely comfortable in this dress, it felt like a regular maxi dress on. It stayed in place and never slipped out of place which is something I worried about as it has a deep v neck and backless. The material is a really nice quality and weight (leave it to the French to source great silk). It is thick enough to not be sheer or over revealing. I did not need to wear anything on top to hide my ta-ta's, and you don't see them in the photo's. It was cold out - a foggy San Francisco summer day.

This dress has a beautiful movement to it, it is not stiff. I think it is part the way Delphine designed it and the material. My wedding was a city hall wedding only (no reception; just a 15 minute ceremony and a long lunch with my husband and his boys after) but if you have a full day planned with different events and a photographer for a couple of hours or more - this is a very photogenic (recommend googling this dress and searching the images- the pictures are gorgeous of all the brides!) dress.

The dress is a 40/France. 8/USA. I'm a size 6 and this dress was taken-in in the waist/hips (note I have no waist I have a square build, not an hour-glass build) and the straps shortened about 1". I hope this isn't a deal breaker but, I did not want a train so I had mine cut. I wanted the dress to hang like the green version of this dress Keira Knightley wore in movie The Atonement which is why I added that photo. Keira didn't trip in the movie and I didn't want to trip at my wedding. Because of this alteration I decided to discount more than 60%
