Shea creates its impact through a sharp contrast between light and simplicity.

The strapless sweetheart bodice is densely covered in fine bead, pearl or crystal embellishment, catching the light across the upper body and drawing attention to the waist.

From there, all embellishment stops and a completely clean satin skirt opens into a full  silhouette. The skirt has a fashion forward edge with a flat front and high volume on the hips.

The contrast allows the bride to have both sparkle and restraint in one gown, finished with the scale of a cathedral-length train.

This gown is made up of seperate pieces.
