To accompany these modern bridal separates, there is the Ozzie skirt in soft sheer silk tulle that sits at the slimmest part of the waist for the most flattering shape, with a long train that is adorned ornate in handmade 3D organza and ostrich feather flowers. Cover up for winter weddings with the illustrious Rosamond goat coat lined in soft crepe back satin with leather facings.
