To start, the fabric is beautiful, a little be shiny, but not overly. The skirt seems to be just a TAD fuller than it looks on the model in the picture, but I loved it regardless. The length was as advertised and the measurements they took from me were perfect. The quality was top notch. We cinched the heck out of it to get the shape I wanted, and it was no problem.
Instead of a Wedding Dress, my daughter wanted it for her Sweet 16.
It fit perfectly and was shipped quickly. She is stunningly beautiful as it is, but with the dress she definitely was the center of attention in the entire hotel.
I just ordered my dress. I have looked and close to 800 gowns if not more. I have not tried on all of these of course but my point is I’ve been looking everywhere for a very specific dress. One I didn’t even know if it existed let alone in my price range. I found Olivia Ortega and have been watching the site for about a month when I came across a new dress for sale. One I didn’t recognize seeing before. I inquired about it and Anastasia got back to me very quickly. She’s been walking me through sizing and seeing if the dress I asked about would even fit! She answered each question, was bubbly and patient with me (I can write long message ha)! Anyways Anastasia is one I would recommend to help if you have any questions, concerns, dreams of your big day look. Seriously she made this so much easier than I’ve been experiencing the last few months. The dress should be here in a couple weeks and I’ll update with photos then! May Anastasia and every beautiful lady looking for their dream dress have a blessed day/night!
I ordered this back in June and it got delivered in Aug. I felt beautiful in this and also received a ton of compliments. The only thing I changed is lowering the slit by 1-2 in. Some things to note: The corset allows for a tiny bit of weight gain/weight loss. The straps do restrict some movement and there is a lottt of glitter that gets everywhere.
Very beautiful and extremely comfortable. I’m obsessed with how my photos came out!
Simple and Classic! Perfection! I felt so beautiful and was comfortable all day in this dress. Bonus for pockets. Customer service was amazing! I had an issue with the dress and I contacted them and they replaced it so quickly. Highly recommended this company. You will not be disappointed with the quality and care. I ordered the size US8 I’m 5’7” and 157lbs
I am a seamstress . I had a bride coming to just a little bit adjustment of her dress She was ordered from this website and I have to open the same and do a little bit adjustment inside the dress, but I was just obsessed about the high-quality material that they are using and all this detail on her dress . It was amazing. I definitely order some dress for myself . Definitely recommended to everyone..
Honestly shocked at how well it fit and how absolutely beautiful it was! More than happy with it.
I love this set! There are some slight variations with the bust of the dress, I think the way mine was pleated is different than in the product photo. But it looks good either way. I definitely recommend buying a petticoat to go with the dress but find one that has no metal hoops or else it will show since the material is rather see-through. Also, note that this is polyester chiffon, not silk chiffon, but it is still extremely delicate so handle with care!
I am so in love with this dress. It is so beautifully made and I feel like a true princess in it. Olivia Bottega you made my dreams come true and I could not recommend this company more!
This was the BEST TS we have had in a very long time! The gowns are impeccable inside and out.
I thought this dress was very well-made, flattering, and certainly worth the price. I had it custom-sized and the only thing I had to do was get it hemmed. I have no regrets and would give five stars however I was REALLY disappointed with how it was packaged and shipped. It came quite literally balled up and wrapped a million times in plastic wrap with no box, no labels, nothing. When I received it I was worried I had made an expensive mistake just based on how it was packaged but luckily I pulled it out, steamed all the wrinkles out, and it looked great.
I purchased a cheap back-up dress which came in a beautiful display box wrapped like a gift, so it was pretty sad to see this dress wrapped like an old napkin at nearly quadruple the price of the cheap dress.
Overall the dress is what matters so I give 4 stars!
The Lovisa was my dream rock and roll wedding dress! I ordered custom sizing and it came exactly to my specifications. I didn’t need any alterations! Plan the height for your shoes you plan to wear. Customer support helped me a lot figuring out what worked best for me and was prompt answering my questions. I added a corset back to this and they did it for me at no extra cost as it was originally designed for the Lovisa. This was perfect for a curvy girl like me and the internal boning gave me excellent support. Looking on the inside of the dress, I can see it was extremely well made and the photos just don’t do the sparkle in this dress justice. I will say though it sheds glitter a lot. I recommend you beat out a bit of the excess and test an area with hairspray to help with the shedding. It’s still going to shed all over you but not as much as it would have. Lastly, the slit in this dress gives you a lot of mobility to sit, dance, and walk but can also be modest if you’re not sticking your leg out. This dress was worth every penny!!
I initially pinned this dress on my Pinterest when I first got engaged, not thinking anything of it. Then I did some more research and decided to give it a try. IT IS A DREAM COME TRUE 🥹❤️ I got mine custom made: everything about it fits so well. I HIGHLY recommend. I feel like a fairy tale princess in this dress! Note: there will be excess glitter (it does tell you about that), so beware. I advise shaking over your tub. Thanks so much!!! Will post pics when my wedding happens ❤️
I had to come back and post photos after my wedding! The skirt was STUNNING!
This dress was absolutely stunning and I couldn't have gotten a better dress. The quality and care they put into their dresses shows. We ran into a few hiccups with shipping taking a little longer then expected. An I was amazing with how well their team was with keeping me informed and was able to get me the dress in time for my wedding.
I received my dress about 2 weeks before my wedding date (even though I ordered months in advance). The dress didn't fit perfectly despite having it custom made. I had to get it altered anyways. I'm going to wear it because I spent a lot of money on it, but I didn't love it unfortunately. I thought I looked a little kiddish like a sweet 16 dress more than a wedding second look.
Beautiful veil. I had to turn mine into a cape because of how very heavy it is. It was ripping out my hair. It also left a unbelievable amount of sand like glitter EVERYWHERE. I took months to clean the glitter out of my house.
Buying a dress online can be so scary, but Olivia Bottega blew me away with their service, detailing, and overall excellence! My Meryem skirt took my breath away when I first tried it on but when everything was put together I felt like the prettiest princess of my dreams!! I just cannot express how in love I am!
I loved my wedding dress! I wore this for my engagement party turned surprise wedding and it was just perfect. I felt so comfortable and pretty all night. The neckline is so glamorous and it showed off my gorgeous shoes! Would recommend!
I had this dress for my wedding party. I was comfortable the whole night, didn’t have to worry about tripping over or getting it dirty. It is simple yet beautiful and elegant.
The dress was incredible and looked absolutely amazing. It fit perfectly, I couldn’t have asked for anything better.
Ordered this dress, confirmed multiple times by email. 3 days before it was supposed to arrive, I reached out to check in. They had made the wrong dress! They made the Rakel Mini instead (very short, sheer bodice). Never got the dress I ordered.
Dear Megan,
Please accept our sincerest and most profound apologies for the significant error we made with your order. You are absolutely right—we created the Rakel Mini dress instead of the Rakel Midi you ordered and confirmed. This was our fault entirely, and we are so very sorry for the frustration and disappointment this caused, especially so close to your event.
In an attempt to resolve the situation urgently, we offered you the alternative dresses we had available in a size 10. We understand that none of those options were suitable for you.
Therefore, we processed a full refund for your entire order. The funds should have already returned to your original payment method.
We know that a refund cannot make up for missing the dress you were counting on for your special occasion. We are deeply sorry that we failed you. Our team is already reviewing our internal processes to prevent this from happening in the future.
Again, our sincerest apologies and thank you for your understanding.
With kind regards,
Olivia Bottega Team
This dress was everything i could’ve dreamed of and more. Felt like a princess!
The dress is so beautiful. The details are gorgeous. Its floaty and dreamy.
The review is 100% accurate, it does not allow for alot of arm movement up and down so its not a dress for dancing, but I only wore this dress for the ceremony so it was perfect. When you place your order, get your measurements very precise for the upper body as the look of the dress with the off the shoulder effect relies on the corset interior fitting perfectly.
The lace sparkled and was gorgeous. The skirt was soft and floaty. I got the soft pink inner layer and I loved it!
