Bought my dress (pics)

After much agony, I put a deposit down on my dress!!! I bought it at Kleinfeld where I used Vivian as my consultant (thanks to LIWers who recommended her).

It is an Amelia Casablanca, an Italian couture designer. Her line and this dress is only sold at Kleinfeld's. Luckily, I saw it at their store otherwise I would have never seen it.

The pictures really do not do it justice. It is truly a piece of art and should be in a museum (and not on little ol' me). The dress does not fit properly. Because of my 'bustage' the dress is too low (hence, why my boobs look too big). The real dress's neckline will be raised to compensate for it. I can also wear the dress strapless. The train is cathedral.

The train. It has the same lace from the dress on it. The lace is actually tacked all over the skirt (but you would never know from the pictures).

Congrats! It's lovely!

ETA: I can't believe I used the word 'lovely.' Sounds so matronly!

Your dress is very pretty!
