Hello Everyone, I haven't had much luck trying on wedding dresses as I don't like many styles but yesterday I came across this dress. Is anyone wearing this Essence of Australia D1316? Thank you

    No, but it's STUNNING!!

    I'm wearing this:


    which has a similar vibe.

    I didn't try of any Essence but would have done if I'd seen that!! Good luck tracking it down - and remember to *flach* us a piccy ?

    I have an essence dress

    it's a different style though. i LOVE it.

    especially since it's a 12 (apparently wedding dresses come up small so i was expecting to have to get a 14-16)

    the one you've chosen is lovely - it's a shame that style doesnt suit my shape as thats the style i origonally wanted

    Hi Vikki, I am the same, I haven't liked many dresses but this one stands out. I have not ordered mine yet but I have tried this one 3 times now :-) What colour have you ordered this dress in? I think I will go with oyster. Can I ask you where have you order it from? Good luck with wedding planning. Martina

    I have ordered it in ivory with a matching ivory satin edged veil. Can't wait until it comes in! I've ordered it from Daisy Bridal in Bournemouth. Good luck with your planning! x

    I've an essence, different style (strapless, same lace but to the ground) and I'm amazed how much I like it!

    I don't get the odd posing all the models do though, what's with the strange leaning? I'd never have tried mine on based on the picture.

    Hello, I just wanted to ask you if your dress comes with netty skirt that is a part of the dress? It gives a dress a bit more volume at the bottom and better fishtail shape. I went to two different shops to try it on and in one shop they had the dress with the netty skirt and the other one didn't. In the shop where they didn't have the netty skirt as a part of the dress they said that it doesn't come with it. I am just confused how can same dress/designer be so different. Thank you

    My dress D1316 does have a net underskirt I haven't tried a version without it but it definitely gives it more volume, you can get a fishtail petticoat that would do the job if it doesn't come with it but it seems a bit odd that there would be two versions like that x

    Mine was Essence D989. I love, love their dresses ?

    A perfect design that needs no extra hoops, underskirts etc....

    Plus here's a cheeky pic of me in mine ?

    Hi! I ordered this dress 2 weeks ago for my wedding in August this year, I chose it after trying on a lot of full lace dresses and wanted to try something a bit different. You can take the top lace bit off and have it as just sweetheart neckline which I prefer Smiley smile x

    Hi Stephie,

    I'm not planning on wearing the lace top either, as lovely as it is I prefer the sweetheart neckline!

    Still waiting for my dress to come into stock -it can't be long now!!

    I may be seeing things here but I had a message pop up about underwear to wear with it but it's gone now so in case anyone is struggling I can highly recommend the wonderbra ultimate strapless they call it hand technology and I know it sounds silly but they're so comfy to wear and for once it's a strapless bra that gives really good support (I swear I could be a sales rep for them!) the link is here: http://www.wonderbra.eu/uk/solution-bras-/ultimate-strapless-lace-bra/invt/9469/&colour=Black as silly as it sounds it's definitely worth a look especially if you're struggling!

    Hi everyone.

    I seen the d1316 in a magazine and totally fell in love with it. I tried it on at the weekend and it didnt disappoint!!! Not getting married until next year but i think ive found my dress!!! I tried on the oyster colour but think i would order it in ivory. It is such a change from the full lace dresses. I have also seen a sophia tolli dress called lavinia but it is full lace, going dress shopping today again so might try it on if they have it, just to compare.

    Hi Everyone,

    I couldn't resist posting a pic of me and the dress: Essence D1316

    It was so comfy to wear and I loved every second that I got to wear it.

    Happy planning everyone, I wish you all a day as perfect as ours was!
