Lu
Bohemian bridal gown, “Lu” is our most beloved off the shoulder wedding gown. This ivory dress is lined with a matte stretch satin liner layered among weightless ivory chiffon, silhouette is fitted throughout the bodice before gracefully flowing to an a-line skirt. The lightweight chiffon layers cascade into a rounded extended train adorned with a floral crochet lace trim. This train is infamous for taking breaths away. Top ruffle features a coordinating crochet lace trim as the hem. Armbands are made with an elastic band for comfortable wear and can be worn on the shoulder or off the shoulder. A hidden ivory back zipper and clasp are added for ease of dressing. Custom options: Can be made with or without a train.

- WHAT KIND OF BRA DO I WEAR WITH THIS GOWN?
- A STANDARD STRAPLESS BRA CAN BE WORN WITH THIS DRESS, NO PROBLEM AT ALL. LITTLE TIP: WHEN YOU HIT THE DANCE FLOOR THE SLEEVES CAN BE WORN ON THE SHOULDER FOR A MORE COMFORTABLE FIT WHILE YOU GET DOWN AND BOOGIE.
- IS THIS GOWN HEAVY?
- THE GOWN DOES HAVE SOME WEIGHT TO IT. WE WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND HAVING A BUSTLE PUT IN THE GOWN BY YOUR SEAMSTRESS. THIS WILL HELP OFF SET THE WEIGHT, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO AFTER THE CEREMONY. A BUSTLE IS ALSO REALLY NICE FOR DANCING AND WALKING AROUND (SO NO ONE STEPS ON YOUR TRAIN).
