Floral and fierce, Style D3240 from Essense of Australia is ready to turn heads. A more bold take on our traditional organic styles, this gown kicks it up a notch with a striking sheer bodice--complete with uniquely placed large-scale floral laces for coverage and a mix of pearls, seed beads and bugle beading for a natural texture and shine. The plunging neckline and thin straps are modern and fun, especially as they continue over the shoulders into a double strap feature over the low open back. Finally, the sheer shaped train highlights the flourishing, natural-looking lace patterns which increase in size toward the hem for a gorgeous optical illusion. This dress was purchased during a sample sale in July 2024. It was only tried on by myself the one time at the bridal boutique. It is a beautiful dress just found something different instead.
