STYLIST’S PICK

~ DIANE~

Our wedding dresses here are the best of the best & we love them all, but sometimes, we secretly have our favourites, and we want to share these secrets with you! So what dress is our Diane’s current favourite…. lets see!

“My favourite dress of the moment….it’s D3144 by Essense of Australia. What I love most about this dress is the neckline. It’s different. I really like the wide square shape with the subtle sweetheart dip. Some brides don’t want a plunge neckline so this shape is great for them. The way the lace from the bodice falls down the hips elongates the waist and creates a really feminine look. The shape looks gorgeous and gives brides a beautiful shape. The back has a double strap look, and I love the way it dips down to the lower back. I love how the buttons extend all the way from the top & stop at the end of the train – which is gorgeous! The lace is really pretty and the shape of the train is a striking feature”

How would you accessorise this dress? – “I would have a really soft hairstyle with this dress, something flowing with a pretty diamanté slide maybe. I would keep the jewellery to a minimum – maybe a small crystal droplet necklace and small, delicate droplet earrings. If you wanted to wear a veil, I would go for a single tier, short veil.”

DIANE’S INSIDER TIP

“There is a lot of gorgeous lace detail on this dress so I would carry this feature into other aspects of the wedding, such as the cake, the stationery, the flowers. Maybe a rustic theme but add some lace detail to bring some softness”
