Julie Vino is an Israeli designer. Her collection was -- a sultry, regal and dreamy line-- was inspired by the historic city of Napoli, and plays on the juxtaposition of the city’s lively, modern society set against such an ancient, iconic setting. "Much like the city, Fall collection boasts classic styles with a modern flair," the designer says. "The rich Italian references can be seen in every last detail, from semi-sheer layered tulle with hand alençon lace appliques to the intricate crested bodices.
This dress is a custom piece. It mixes a different top and bottom from her collection. Additionally, I had a third tulle skirt built with a lace bottom to add a romantic flare. In total the dress includes the top, one under skirt and one tulle over skirt and a veil. I wore the two skirts for the ceremony and then took off the tulle skirt for the dinner.
I got married in Mallorca, Spain and th dress was a dream come true. I've only worn it once. It's been dry cleaned and ready to go.
