THIS STUNNING VERA WANG GEMMA GOWN IS BRAND NEW. IT HAS NOT EVEN BEEN TAKEN OUT OF THE GARMENT BAG. IT INCLUDES THE CARD OF AUTHENTICITY.
There are so many beautiful aspects to the Gemma gown. Perhaps the most otherworldly element is the ethereal combination of French tulle and organza, something you wouldn’t expect in a gown with such a defined mermaid silhouette.
Still, this is a very soft mermaid: nothing to be too rigid. There are bands of tulle, wrapping around the body like a swirling cyclone, and ending in bias-cut flanges, which are deconstructed, abstract blossoms in tissue organza: it’s the perfect storm. Inside these rosettes are added SILVER “blizzard beading”: hundreds of tiny little sequins scattered all around. Once the dress is in motion, you get the thrill of that subtle play between lights and darks, but in the form of rosy, feminine blooms.
Between the blossoms and the beading, there’s certainly a pageantry in the base of this gown. It’s an absolute celebration of volume that is meant to be very dramatic, with the fantasy of a ball gown and the sensuousness of a mermaid gown combined. I AM INCLUDING A SILVER BLIZZARD BEADING BELT WHICH RETAILS FOR $300 FOR FREE WITH THE GOWN. Combined with the shimmer of sequins in the cut blossoms of the skirt, it’s a very dynamic look from every angle.
Gemma gives the bride something slender and sleek up top, and at the bottom the flash and splash of sequins and dynamic volume, for the ultimate wedding day spectacle.
THE GOWN WAS PURCHASED FROM EVER AFTER IN MIAMI, FL.
