If you’re considering a non-white dress, trust me—you won’t regret it! I was a bit anxious at first, but once I had the dress, I chose a color palette that complemented it, and everything just fell into place beautifully.
The dress is from Teuta Matoshi, and I opted for custom sizing. It fit perfectly, with the only alteration being the length (it was a bit too long). They even added some custom touches at no extra cost, like a modesty panel to the corseted back and a pocket square for my husband, which we ended up not using. I would absolutely recommend purchasing from them!

That sounds like an amazing project! The combination of Rit dye on silk chiffon and hand-dyed opals must have created such a beautiful, luminous effect in the sunlight. I’m glad the advice over the past two years helped you bring your vision to life! How did the final look turn out in the end?
