Elegant Simple Chic Modern Strapless Trumpet Wedding Dress
Rita Vinieris for Rivini Couture
I purchased this dress from the Timeless Rivini capsule in 2020 for $5,500. The material is ivory silk magnolia, and the dress is size 4 with alterations (I'm a street size 2 with a size A cup, 5'7", and wore 2.25-inch heels) and a french bustle. The dress is altered to let the toe of my heeled shoe barely peep out from under the dress. I also added small cups to the dress and corset boning. Custom buttons (added for $200) run down the back of the dress instead of the bow.
The dress is dry-cleaned ($315) and in almost perfect condition. The only wear is that one of the points of the bustle detached from the underlining, but the string can be easily pulled through to tie the bustle(NOTE: this CANNOT be noticed from the outside). I also have a video of how the bustle works that I can send.
I wore this for our wedding in Naples, Italy in May 2022, and felt gorgeous! The dress was easy to move around in, sit, and dance when bustled.
