Joanna

This dress was inspired by Joanna’s love for empire line costume as seen in films like Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility. The gown itself is simple and elegant with the white silk satin flowing softly into the train. The gathered, crossover bodice is very flattering on a petite figure and is not lost under the silk dupion jacket (a must for autumn). The low open neckline of the jacket shows off the bodice while the frilled collar of shimmering silk kempala frames the face. Other details include gleaming pearl buttons on the jacket and all the way down the centre back of the gown. A bridal classic and also the bride’s birthstone. The long cathedral veil enhanced the slim silhouette of the gown.
