MONTEREY

Meet Monterey, the baroque inspired gown that has a touch of bohemian spirit. Her sweet tulip sleeves split down the middle falling to either side of the arm, exposing her shoulder. Monterey draws together in a wrap style V bodice, which creates beautiful curvature throughout the bust and waist. The lace has an incredible botanical influence which is ever so intricate on a closer look. Translucent sequences have been placed to reflect the sunlight, shimmering as she moves. The real beauty is further disguised; petite pearl beads emulating romance and act as a symbol of perfection, beauty and purity – the essence of Monterey. A thin satin ivory belt cinches in her bride’s waist as the lace drapes underneath, falling into a somewhat fitted gown that drops from the hip down. Madi Lane’s curve collection is all about comfort and in this case, a boho touch which has been added in the form of a carefree leg split. As she turns, the lace peels away creating a soft V backline as the body of the gown pools from behind into a forbidding train. Monterey’s billowing sleeves and pearl embellishments are just enough to satisfy the flower child, living in all of us.
