Genevieve

Genevieve gives a bride puffed sleeves above the elbow and a closer line down the rest of her arms. She can remove them when she wants the gown without that extra shape.

Ivory floral lace lies over blush lining, with sequins, fine beads and raised motifs covering the bodice, skirt and long mermaid train, whose edge has an eyelash fringe. A heart-shaped neckline dips into a narrow V, while the back stays closed beneath scalloped lace; the off-shoulder sleeves are separate from the bodice and taper below their full upper section. The gown is made in an EU-based atelier.

She can contact the DAMA partner boutiques in the UK for advice about Genevieve.

She can choose full sleeves beside the fitted body or let the same all-over pattern frame her with less around the arms.
