From the Amsale Signature Collection, the "Naya" is a strapless floor length gown which features an asymmetrical neckline and a lovely crystal flower brooch and trumpet skirt, perfect for the chic bride. The gorgeous construction of this gown is a classic Amsale style that will always look stunning and elegant through the years.
The fabric is Ivory Silk Mikado - an exquisite, lightweight fabric with a slight sheen, which Amsale uses in her entire collection. This fabric is versatile and looks gorgeous both day and night.
*Seller's Note: I am the first owner of this Amsale dress and purchased this directly from the Amsale Flagship Salon in Madison Avenue in New York City. Like most designer gowns, it took 8 months to create. I have the original receipt.
I wore this dress at our indoor morning wedding in December 2012, at La Valencia Hotel in La Jolla, California. This dress was worn only for 6 hours and can be considered as slightly used. It looks "good as new" and well worth the price for a designer gown. There are no stains and this dress was immediately taken to the dry cleaners 2 days after the wedding and all the minor hem marks were cleaned and removed.
I had a great time wearing this lovely dress and would be happy to pass it on to the next Amsale Bride! :)
