Ivory Satin Off-Shoulder Lace Slit Wedding Dress Design

Hello, thank you so much! I'm very excited!

A few specific ideas I had for the dress based on the images I attached:

The first image reflects the silhouette I initially envisioned — something that flatters the waist and has a body-skimming fit. I love how that dress highlights the figure while still feeling elegant. I also love the details it has on the chest area as well as the draping it has acentuating the waist!

I’d love to combine that body with the off-the-shoulder draped sleeves shown in the second image — soft, romantic, and flattering for the arms.
I’m also really drawn to the floral fabric details in the first dress. I’d prefer the visual interest to come from embroidery or draping, rather than heavy sparkle. A bit of subtle shimmer to catch the light is fine, but I’d like to keep the overall look elegant and fabric-focused.

I love the idea of an open back — whether it’s a low scoop, V-back, or soft drape. I’m flexible on the exact style and happy to go with whatever balances best with the front and overall design:

If it’s a low back, I’m okay with an invisible zipper.
If it’s a draped back, I’m happy to go without one.
For the front, I’m considering a boatneck or soft scoop neckline — something modest up top to contrast the open back and keep the overall balance.

I’d prefer no slit, unless it’s layered with sheer fabric underneath — just to feel a little more secure and conceal some light cellulite.
As far as details, I’m drawn to embroidery, fabric draping, and dainty fabric-covered buttons. Minimal sparkle is okay, but I’d like the design to feel timeless and elegant.
For the closure, I’m open to a few buttons or a zipper — whatever fits best with the final design.

Hello!!

Yayy! Thank you! Also, Thank you so much for your professional opinion! Whatever you think is best ! :) I'll look at the lining fabric options now

I'm not entirely sure what fabrics to choose from, I just want it to look like the picture.

I asked around and i was given this advice? What do you think?

Main Fabric: Crepe or maybe Mikado? (for body-hugging silhouette that isn’t stiff or overly shiny) I believe the fabric in the picture looks a bit more matte?

Details & Sleeves: Chiffon or silk organza for flowy draping

Embellishments: Lace appliqué on illusion tulle for subtle floral detail. embroidered or appliquéd with lace motifs?

Lining: Soft satin or stretch lining for comfort

My wedding is on September 24 of 2025. Do you think It will arrive on time? Thank you!

Hi Thank you so much for your advice!

Yes I think the color match #23 looks great! I love these sleeves and the design, I'm so excited! thank you!

I did want to check in about the sleeve placement, Do you think it will cover the armpit area well enough? I'm not super picky about it, I'm just a little insecure about that little area. I will attach a picture of myself so you can see what I mean😅. It's not a big deal, but just wanted to ask, thank you!

I don't love the back, I'll be okay with it if there's really no other choice though! But do you think there's a way to do something a bit more sexy/soft on the back. I'm worried it will look a bit too structed on the back. I was thinking a bit more of a softer stretchy material, over something very very structured.

Is it possible to do something a little closer to this? Thank you!

In regards to the apliquee, I love all of them wow they're beautiful! I think I'm a bit worried of some being on the bulky side so I think I like apliquee number 5 the most, it seems more flat, I love the detail and i like that it looks slightly sparkly so it still looks like a wedding dress. But Apliquee number 2 would've been my other choice if it doesn't sit bulky on the dress. Whatver you think looks closer to the dress in the picture or what you think would look the best in person! :)

Hello,

I hope you're doing well, I just wanted to see if there are any updates on the dress:) Thank you!

Can the length be a just a little bit longer, and can we do something like this to make it stand out a little bit? Maybe use the same detail from the top or anything you think will look nice?

I will get the measurementst to you as soon as I can! Either by today or tomorrow at the latest! Thank you so much for getting back to me! I'm okay with the straps thank you for your advice!! <3

I'm so excited! I just wanted to say thank you again for making something for me that's my dream dress at a price that I can afford! I will get those measurements as soon as I can :D

Hello! I understand about the price going up, and I'm okay with it! Thank you for being so responsive. Honestly I'm not entirely sure about having the side embellishments on the skirt.. I'm worried it might be too much? How will it looks with the fabric going across the hips + the skirt embellishment ? I'm not opposed to it, the detail is beautiful, I'm just not sure how both together might look.

What do you think?

I apologize for not getting those measurements quick enough, I went to three different tailoring places and no one wanted to measure me. I have them, these are the measurements! :)

Full height: 67 inches
Bust: 32 inches
Under bust: 29 inches
Mid shoulder to bust: 7 1/2 inches
Waist: 26 inches
Hips: 38 1/2 inches
Hollow to floor: 56 inches
Shoe height: 2 inches
Arm circumference: 10 inches

Hello, I wen't ahead and paid for the 60% down as well as exepdited shipping <3 Thank you!!

If this helps at all, I don't need the dress to have those lines down the middle if it makes it look nicer to transition the skirt with the embellishments.



In the case we do the skirt slit design with the embelishments would the hip drape be extended down to connect to the slit?
Like this? or would that look strange?

Hello, I would prefer to not have a slit. I have a bit of cellulite I would like to avoid showing. Thank you!

Oh my apologies, I forgot we talked about this slit! If it looks like this and it covers direct skin then yes I'm for it :) Sorry about that. I like the reference picture you sent, but can it be a bit more off to the side like this one?

Thank you!

I don't think i like the scrunched slit, if there's a slit i would prefer it to be more V like i think, more clean.

I'm trying to think what the slit would look like with the detail the dress has around the hips? would the hip design be dragged down to the slit?

How about something like this?

Also I would love a video from Tiktok! :D

I've followed Lunns, and my Tiktok is Daiana31 (Dai3131)

Thank you!

Hello,

In the case that I did the pleated sheath slit design, including the overskirt.

Would it look like this?

I like this fabric, yes :)

Will the detachable skirt have the long train with the detail? Will it still look more like this?

I still want the train to have the lace like the one I sent above, and if there's a slit I don't want to show my skin, i would like it to have a sheer lace or something under it
.

I love how these designs accentuate the waist!

Will the dress get here before september 24? That's when my wedding is. Thank you!

I don't necessarily want the skirt that detaches, I really just like the hip detail the dress has and how it accentuates the waist. Instead of the mermaid bottom of the dress i prefer the shape of the dress I'm sending in this image with the slit. For under the slit, can I have a sheer lace under it like this picture?

Hello, I don't think I like the mix of the slit with the hip drape, it looks a bit odd.

1. I don't know if I have a preference, I think it seems like most dresses with the slit is on the left. So sure lets do the left! :)
2. Yay thank you!
3. It can yeah! I think that would look beautiful, or the lace used for under the skirt. Whatever you feel looks more elegant. Thank you !
   
   

The picture i initially had sent that's below seems to have extra draping fabric ontop of the skirt, i think that would look a bit odd with the slit..



Unless it looked more like this one with the slit;

I'm so sorry I don't mean to be confusing!! This is what I want, the slit can be on the right if it means it looks like this. Thank you, and again I don't mean to be frustrating! So sorry It's not my intention.

I think the slit would still be on the left, based off the picture I sent above 😅

This picture is the final design I have in mind, Is this possible? <3

It can also have the detacheable skirt if it makes it easier for the train, if you'd like to use the detacheable skirt as the train. Whatever makes the most sense! thank you!

The more I see this, the more I fall in love with it. Can we do this please? <3

Hello,

Do you think I'll be able to get my dress in time?

Thank you!

Thank you so so much!! I'm extremely excited!! :D
For the lace that goes under the dress, I think I like the second one you sent, I think the smaller flowers might look better?

What do you think? Or anything that resembles this referenfe picture the most? It also doesn't have to have a whole lot of embellishement, as long as if has a the sheer over my leg and my leg isnt bare haha. Thank you!!

Perfect lets do it:) Thank you!!!

By when do you think the dress will arrive? <3

Yayy! Thank you so much! <3

Hello! I was wondering if there may be any updates of the dress? :)

Okay I understand, thank you for your response!

Hello! I hope your day is going well so far. I was hoping to see if there are any updates on my dress :)Thank you!

Thank you so much! no worries! I appreciat the update :)

Thank you so much! I just really need it at the very least two weeks before my wedding, say on September 24th. Thank you so much!

My apologies, I meant my wedding is on september 24th. I'm hoping to have it a few weeks beforehand.

Thank you!

Thank you so much, Shirley!! <3

Hi Shirley! I was just hoping for any updates! How is everything going?

Thank you!

Hello! I'm okay with keeping the neckline the way the dress maker suggests, as for the sleeves, I would prefer the option with sleeves! The back doesn't need to be that low it's okay.

Thank you!

Hello,

That neckline and sleeves is beautiful, I'm all for it!

For the back I like this design you sent!!


For the skirt, I'd love the pleats from the image I sent you! so yes, on the pleats as well as the soft lace underneath!

Yes that's okay if it's one full skirt. Unless you'd be able to add maybe some sort of fabric over the train that would mesh well with the train? Like skirt that detaches..

So make the entire skirt and train one piece, and then have an adittional piece that would create a bit more of that hip appearance?

I believe that should look good! I was imagining the back being white but if you think the back being lined with the #23 lining would look good lets do it that way. I still want it to look like a wedding dress so as long as the majority of it is white I think it would look good.

Okay great! I do prefer the pleats from the second dress you sent as an example if that helps at all! It looks like it shapes her waist and hips better :)

Thank you!

Hello,

The latest date I need it by is by September 15th.

The sleeves are attached yes! :)

With the skirt, will there also be the detached extra fabric to create that hip effect, like the image?

Will the dress still look somewhat like this? I'm okay witht the detacheable skirt blending in with the train as well if it needs to be the same fabric for example?

Thank you!

Okay that's fine

No worries, I understand!

Do you think the dress will arrive by the 15th of september?

Thank you!

Yes that all looks great!

Awesome, thank you!!

Hi Shirley just checking in. Any updates? :)

Yayy! I'm so excited!! I'll defintely be posting you guys on tiktok! I can't wait to receive it :D

Hello! I'm a bit concerned about the size of the hips, I know it's on a slimmer body/mannequin so it might stretch out but I wanted to make sure.

I have a fairly small waist in comparison to my hips, the measurement I gave you should still be accurate though.

With the waist part, will there be some sort of material covering the line or will it look more clean after it's done? I think the one I sent had a slight piece covering it a bit, though it might look like more light material on the example photo below; I really like the effect the sample photos ive sent have on the waist and hips, where it goes in by the waist and out giving an hourglass shape. I'm worried the photo you sent looks broad on the shoulders but very narrow and rectangular for the rest of the body.

Can we make the pleats a bit smaller and more full like the sample pictures below? I also really like how it shapes her body. What do you think?

Thank you so much for your understanding and for your patience, the dress means a lot to me so I just want it to fit right, It's really my only hope right now since It's far too late to get any other dress so all my eggs are in this basket 😅

I don't know if these pictures help, but this is what my shape is like in a tighter dress

I found another exmple of the pleats I like! :)

Hi Shirley,

That sounds great, thank you!

Great!! thank you !

Hi Shirley! Hope your days going well, I was wondering if there are any updates? :)

Thank you!

Okay, no worries. Thank you!

The train looks gorgeous!!

Hello!!

Thank you so much for sending photos!! I think it looks beautiful thank you! I love the lace on the slit!

How much would I have left to pay, and how do I pay? Thank you

Hello! I went ahead and paid for it! Thank you!!

Thank you so much!! Will I get shipping updates?? :)

5-7 days doesn't give me enough time to alter it if I need to, you said I would receive the dress before September 15th. I paid for expedited shipping.. I get shein shipments faster than 7 days. We've been designing and discussing this dress for over two months, I can't be receiving this dress two days before my wedding, what if It doesn't fit right or look as good as I hoped? I spent over my budget for this dress, I don't have enough to buy another one. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but I'm very disappointed in how long it's going to take to get here.
