Tilia ~ Hemp and Silk Wedding Dress
A delicate, minimalist wedding gown, where the main focus is on the quality fabrics, and the balance of the proportions and textures.
The bodice is made with a vintage handwoven hemp cloth, and it is entirely lined with pure silk Duchesse satin (so dreamy against your bare skin).
A corset lace-up details it in back. This can be substituted with a zipper if you so desire, just make your choice when you order.
If you choose the zipper, do expect that the zipper may need to be re-set by your tailor as it is difficult to get a perfect fit without a proper fitting. It is not a difficult process and any experienced tailor can do it for you. The corset on the other hand adds detail and ensures a perfect fit as you can fine-tune the size yourself when you put it on.
Look-wise, the zipper has a more polished, modern effect, the corset is more romantic and bohemian.
The bodice will have halter straps sewn on, with you can tuck into the bodice to wear it strapless as pictured.
The skirt is made of three layers of silk. The bottom one is a Habutai silk lining, the middle one is a creamy ivory Crepe de chine, and the top one is flowing ivory silk crepe chiffon, light and sheer, with a delicate rippling texture, flowing airily with your movements.
The top layer has an overlapping slit in front for added movement and drama.
+ INFO
The pictured sample dress has a small train. I can also make it a bit longer, or keep it floor length all around. It also looks lovely with a train only for the top layer, and the bottom layers just brushing the floor.
It is pictured with the Daisy lace and silk sash in some of the photos (not included).

I was very nervous to order my wedding dress online and have heard some horror stories but I just couldn't find what I was looking for in stores. After reading Maria's reviews I decided to check out her shop and I'm so glad I did! During the dress making process Maria was always quick to reply and was open to my ideas. She was flexible with my time schedule, emailed me photos of the dress after she made it, and sent it to my house very quickly. It fits perfectly and I can't speak highly enough for the craftsmanship that went into my wedding dress. I'm so excited to wear it on my wedding day this August.

I couldn't believe this only took 4 days to ship from Italy to California in the USA! And then, once it arrived, I could not believe how beautiful and absolutely perfect it is!! Lucia was incredibly easy and wonderful to work with. I could not be more pleased with this gown and I cannot wait to wear it on the big day!! I was slightly nervous it wasn't going to fit exactly right since I had measurements taken and then given to Lucia, but due to her thoroughness of specific measurements, it is exactly perfect!!! This gown flows perfectly with my movement and I cannot wait to wear it in the forest at our ceremony!! Will post photos once I get them from the photographer! Thank you so much for creating this beauty for me, Lucia. I genuinely appreciate it.

I can't begin to say how happy we (bride and mother of the bride) are with this lovely, simply elegant wedding dress. I was a little hesitant to order from overseas (we are in USA), but the entire purchase from communication before we purchased, to providing measurements for customization, to completing the dress timely, and then promptly shipping–all went well. If you like what you see, I highly recommend Lucia at larimeloom. The product is as pictured and truly beautiful. Don't be fooled by another cheaper site that uses this same picture…we started this way, but canceled that order when a preshipment photo of the actual dress, supposedly custom made, was clearly inferior. If I could, I would give larimeloom 10 stars!!!

I was a little reluctant at first, being that I’m in the U.S and Lucia at Larimeloom is in Italy, but it was a breeze even across the ocean. I chose her as a designer because I love how simple, elegant and unique her designs are. I emailed a few questions and always heard back within a day. I sent measurements and requested a few small changes to the design of this dress (we added a subtle blush colored skirt and a tiny lace trim on the bodice). I also ordered a matching shrug. I received a perfectly fitting gown made of the most luxurious fabrics, and a lovely flattering shrug to wear with it. Lucia is a talented designer and seamstress. I could not be happier.
