This Bridal Gown Would Require SIX Bridesmaids

HerFamily

If you fancy this dress for your special day, you’ll need to make sure you have six bridesmaids as that’s how many people it took to arrange it for the catwalk!

The bridal gown, designed by Ralph and Russo, was modelled by Brazilian model Isabeli Fontana at Paris Haute Couture this week.

<> on January 25, 2016 in Paris, France.

According to The Telegraph, the dress was made of 736 metres of off-white tulle and took over 50 embroiders 6,000 combined hours to create.

The ornate gown, which probably costs more than a house, has a three-metre train and millions of tiny beads, crystals and pearls on it.

Isabeli also shared a few snaps of the dress on Instagram. Alongside one, she wrote: “I’m amazed how beautiful this @ralphandrusso dress is for everyday life!!”

While we reckon it would be a bit much and totally impractical for the dance floor after a few drinks, we can’t deny that it is fabulous.
