Essence of Australia Lace Mermaid-Style Gown

On her first trip to Bella Sera Bridal, Justina wasn’t quite sure what she was looking for in a gown. She tried on every style, from fit-and-flare to mermaid-style and even ball gown silhouettes. “The dress I chose was actually one of the first dresses I tried on,” Justina says. “I loved the drama and elegance that the dress had and I felt it complemented the venue, which was also dramatic and elegant.” The Essence of Australia design had a mermaid-style silhouette, open back, subtle beaded embellishments and delicate lace straps.
