Tilia ~ Hemp and Silk Wedding Dress

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).
