I can''t believe it, but I found THE DRESS!

[sugarjo]

I am on cloud 9 about this. Let me start by saying that it has been a frustrating process that has me threating elopement more that once.

I''m posting some internet pics of the dress. But you will have to use your imagination as we are customizing a great deal of it. I took a couple of pics on my blackberry, but i''m not sure how to get them off. (Until IT FI comes home that is.)

The pictures on line of the dress show it with sleeves. The sample did not have sleeves, and mine will not either, also, the satin ribbon will be replaced with a sash that will tie in the back. We will also have it in more of a mermaid cut.

Without further ado, I give you, my DREAM DRESS!!!

The back......

Close up of awesome back.....

 

[sugarjo]

The sash we are adding will come together to resemble this Amsale gown....

Sugarjo: It looks like the sheer part is a separate piece that''s attached to the ribbon that ties in back -- is that right?

 

[Tuckins1]

What a beautiful dress! I have never seen a dress with that kind of design in the back... Can''t wait to see your pics!!

 

[sugarjo]

no, it''s sewn into the dress. the ribbon only covers the seam which will be replaced by a sash of the same material as the dress..

OK.... I''m getting a clearer vision of what your dress will look like now.... and it looks very nice!

Congratulations on finding the one!

Wow! Congrats on finding the one ... I can just imagine how spectacular it will be when all your alterations are complete.

My honey just helped me get pics off my phone,
forgive the quality......

 

[sugarjo]

The flappy things will be much shorter, but you get the point......
thanks for looking.

Can''t wait to see more when it comes in

 

[EricaR]

[katamari]

Simple, classy, elegant. . .everything I think a wedding dress should be! Congrats! It is beautiful.

 

[Blackpaw]

[musey]

Oh wow, what a beautiful dress!

 

[BigDiamonds]

sugarjo, GREAT dress! It looks amazing on you!

I love dresses that manage to be both interesting and classic.

Is that Anna Be, btw? I loved that place, they were so great. I almost bought a dress there but then decided that it was too shiny at the last minute. It was definitely my favorite place though (and I went to ALL

of them).

 

[AmberGretchen]

Lovely - so unique and elegant

 

[sugarjo]

BD-
Yes it is at Anna Be. They are so wonderful, helpful and NOT PUSHY like the other popular stores around town. I''m with you, I have been to all of them. And I am relieved to not have to go back and compromise on something I''m not crazy about!!!!
BTW- Anna Be is having a trunk show for Sara Gabriel if you haven''t purchased a head piece. Her stuff is so stunning. There is a link to her page on Anna Be''s site!!!

Thanks sugarjo! Her stuff is amazing! Now I remember seeing it when I was there, but I wasn''t in the accessory stage yet so I couldn''t let myself pay too much attention.

Looks like the timing on the trunk show is perfect for my hair trial too...

 

[Dreamgirl]

It''s very pretty!

 

[bee*]

[kittybean]

So pretty! I love how you''re going to change it to suit you. Anna Be was my favorite store when I went dress shopping
