Penelope
$1,608.00 – $1,858.00
A true fairytale-inspired gown with a strapless lace bodice, A-line glitter tullé skirt, and off-the-shoulder tulle swag. Perfect for an elopement in nature, a more casual garden wedding, or a reception dress to dance the night away in! This beautiful has a satin layer for the base with tulle and lace on top.
Base Layers
A good base is very important when it comes to the fit and construction of a wedding dress. This base, like all of our gowns, starts with a lining, a foundation layer, and then the self layer. Self simply refers to the most used fabric in the garment; ie. satin, crepe, mikado, etc. Princess seams, boning, a bra strap, and bra cups are all built into the foundation to provide support and lift in this strapless gown.
Overlays
Sewn into the princess seams with the satin is the lace layer. This beautiful lace has a dense pattern of a larger floral pattern. When you choose the Silver colorway the lace has silver details sewn throughout. As a flat lace, it has no beading or sequins. The neckline of the bodice brings together the off-the-shoulder drape and the main bodice. Together they create a beautiful swooped sweetheart neckline that then separates. While the satin and lace wrap around the back slightly dipping down into a lower curve the arm drape extends out over the arm and comes together on center back buttoning together. The lovely arm drape has a tullé base with gathered tullé gathered over the top. Additionally,
Matching the gathered tullé in the bodice is the gathered tullé skirt. Designed with several layers of soft tullé and glitter tullé, this skirt is a dream. When paired with the silver colorway the glitter in the skirt reflects the silver detailing in the bodice. While designed with glitter tullé the gown is available with all soft tullé or all medium weight tullé, for a stiffer less relaxed skirt. This gown is designed without a train, however, all of our gowns can be customized. You could even order the gown with a removable train.
Customization Examples
-Adding More Buttons (extra cost)
-Adding a train (extra cost)
-Switching the tullé out for a different type of tullé (no extra cost)
Accessorizing
One of our favorite accessories to pair with Penelope is our Tess veil in waltz length. Another veil that would look amazing with this gown would be our Lena veil.
