Catalina is the classic long line wedding dress that you’ve been dreaming about – with a twist.
From the second I tried on the Catalina gown I knew it was the right dress. As someone who is a little curvier the corset back and shape of the gown just hugged me in all the right places and was quite comfortable and super flattering. because of the draping and corset back I was able to get away with not wearing any shapewear. worn for 4 hours on the day and professionally dry cleaned.
Sizing:
I'm usually a size 14 and have a size F bust. This dress is a size 16 and has been altered at the front to my height 171cm. Because of the corset back it can easily be made tighter. No cupping in the dress but can easily be added
From the website:
Catalina meets modern with regal and produces a timeless look, but one that’s uniquely your own. It’s all in the small details here; from the centre detail on the straight, strapless neckline, to the ultra-flattering asymmetrical gathering that shapes your silhouette. This long line wedding dress features boning to the high hip, snatching your waist, and giving you shape for days.
The Catalina features an A-Line skirt with contemporary flair. While the back is stunningly traditional, the front boasts a gorgeous split and structured draping to show off your shape, but ensure that you wont need any shape wear. Dramatic beauty is in each element on this stunning, mikado gown.
