It’s not every day that we meet a bride celebrating recommitment to her husband after 25 years of love and marriage, and that is why creating Patrizia’s anniversary dress was all the more special.  This non-traditional, sensual dress was created with the Southern Italian coastline in mind. A semi-sheer bodice was heavily boned to avoid the need for straps, its neckline enhanced with sharp edges for a modern twist. Though fully beaded dresses are often heavier than they appear, the weight of the beaded gown sat firmly on the natural waistline. The thigh-high slit,  floor-length hem, and lack of train made it all the easier to walk up the many steps Ravello’s become known for.
