I immediately fell in love with this dress the first time I saw it. I even went and tried on dresses in person at a bridal shop and I liked the dresses, but could not stop thinking about this dress. I really wanted sparkly and this dress did not disappoint! I also wanted to change into something for my reception, but did not want to miss out on getting to wear this beautiful dress as long as I could. I reached out to OB and asked if they could custom make this dress with pants as a one piece and an overskirt. I wore the skirt for my ceremony and pictures and the introduction at my reception and once the party started I took off the skirt to reveal that there was pants! I had a friend help me with my measurements. My dress arrived and it fit PERFECTLY! I did not have to make a single alteration. I asked for the overskirt to be longer so I could wear heels for my ceremony and wanted to make sure it covered the pants underneath so no one could see them. You could not tell that the skirt was not connected. It was made so well. I can not say enough great things about OB and this dress! Seriously impressed! We were in contact through the whole process and they sent me lots of pictures and a video of my dress prior to shipment. Shipping was very fast. It came ahead of scheduled time. Would highly recommend!

I wore this dress for my wedding on 8.5.23. It was almost perfect - I received many compliments. I removed a star for the following reasons:

1) The glitter shed was OBNOXIOUS. This dress will shed glitter all night. My arms and face were covered in glitter by the end of the night, as was anyone I hugged. I will probably be charged an extra cleanup fee by my venue, I'm not kidding.

2) I did a custom size order. I additionally needed alternations to put in a corset back (OB quoted around $400 to do it, my local lady did it for $150) and shortened up the shoulder straps since the longer straps made the built-in bra unusable. However, this did cause a situation where the waist was raised a bit into 'empire waist' category. I understand most of this was my fault, but I think OB could require a few more measurements about the length of the torso for custom sizes.

I have been waiting to be able to write this review! Like most people, I was very hesitant about ordering my wedding dress online, but I couldn't get the sparkle kossy dress out of my head. I ordered it through "ready to ship" just to try it on and fell in love with a few adjustments. I got in contact with one of the reps at Olivia Bottega and talked about a few of the adjustments that I wanted to make (raising the "v" a little bit, lowering the back, opening up the arm holes) and they quoted me an extremely reasonable add on price to the dress. I approved the changes and ordered the dress in custom sizing to make sure it fits like a glove. When they finished making the dress, they sent me a video of it completed and shipped it promptly! I then ordered the sparkle veil from their website. From beginning to end, the customer service team was so incredibly helpful in creating my dream dress. I would highly recommend Olivia Bottega to everyone that I know!!!

The dress was beautiful, I was a bit skeptical ordering my wedding dress online. But when it turned up I was very happy. It just needed a couple little tweaks and it is perfect! They were great at responding to all my questions and there was a lot! Highly recommend buying your dress from here!
