I wanted a short dress that still looked and felt like a bridal dress. This dress checked every box! Gorgeous and so sparkly in person. The flower beading throughout the dress is subtle, but truly adds to its elegance. The sleeves are soft and feminine. The sequins at the very top (where the dress meets your skin) can be a bit scratchy because well….sequins. However, I just made sure to lotion the area before wearing and it was fine.

I ordered the Meryem dress at the beginning of 2023. I was stressed about ordering online but hopeful. After speaking to Kate and providing my measurements, she advised me on the ideal sizing.
It ended up being perfect, albeit a bit long so I went ahead and got a professional seamstress to shorten it at the front so it could be perfect with my 85mm heels.
I paired the dress with matching veil (Indjoy) in 450cm. The full effect of dress and veil made me cry.
With the wedding fast approaching (March 2024), I got the Kay dress, custom made in blush so I can wear it as my getting ready dress.
Both dresses and the veil are absolutely beautiful.
I had a sunny and delightful March wedding and was able to wear everything. People applauded from the venue all the way to the church.
Truly grateful to have been the belle of the ball. It truly felt like a fairytale with the castle and my hubby in his white tie attire.
Thank you for making me the most royal bride.
My dress and veil are now professionally dry cleaned and stored in a museum grade box, until I get my custom shadow box built into our home. Wonderful keepsake for a magnificent wedding and an even happier marriage.

"The Prettiest Dress Ever" – My Review of the Selkie Wedding Dress

I can't even begin to explain how much I loved the Selkie dress from Olivia Bottega! 💕 From the delicate floral lace to the perfect fit, it was everything I dreamed of. The shorter length gave me the perfect balance of elegance and fun — I felt so comfortable and free to move. ✨

The detachable straps were a game-changer! I wore it strapless for the ceremony, then added the straps for the reception — it was like having two different looks in one. 💃

The quality is incredible; you can feel how much care went into making it. I felt so beautiful and confident, and that’s exactly what every bride deserves on her special day. 💍

If you’re looking for something unique and timeless, this dress is truly the one. I’m so happy I chose it! 😍

I originally had my eyes set on the Cameron dress, but when I came across the Alraune dress, I instantly fell in love. The moment I saw it, I just knew it was the one. The organza fabric, the tea-length style - it felt so dreamy and perfect for my wedding day. When the dress arrived, I was so excited, but I realized I had ordered the wrong size. I was a bit worried, but I reached out to Olivia Bottega’s customer service, and they were amazing. They helped me with the exchange right away, and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. I honestly couldn’t have asked for better service! The dress ended up being even more beautiful than I imagined. It was light, flattering, and so comfortable. I felt like a princess! I’m so glad I found this dress, and I’ll definitely recommend Olivia Bottega to anyone looking for something special.

The moment I saw this dress I knew it was "the one"! The dress was perfectly crafted and designed and fit my body like a glove. The shine of the fabric was beautiful and the design was such a classic and elegant one. It definitely was perfect for the aesthetic I was going for. The sparkly veil also helped to make this dress stand out even more. I received loads of compliments on this dress! Coming across this website was the best thing that ever happened to me. I'd recommend any bride to give this designer a try!

This item is described as a cardigan, and a cardigan is shown in one of the pictures. However, what I received is a pullover sweater. What's the difference, you ask? A cardigan is open at the front and buttons (or not). A pullover slips over the head. I have unfortunately returned the item.

I purchased this dress and he is perfect. Unfortunately it did fit me, even pulling all the string in the back. I have been trying to return the dress for the past 3 days with no reply from customer service.

This dress was easily the best decision I could've made. Custom ordered sizing and got a french bustle put in by a local tailor at home when I received it. Fit me perfectly, absolutely stunning.

This dress was absolutely perfect for the most perfect day. Every detail on this dress is gorgeous and yes, it is a bit heavy but absolutely worth it. The amount of compliments I have received (wedding day & beyond) on how incredible this dress is, has been overwhelming - in a good way!
Thank you again for making this special day one that I will remember forever!

I thought the dress would be super heavy, but it is very comfortable, despite the longest train ever. I always dreamed of a luxurious wedding and I got one, so I am very happy and truly recommend Olivia Bottega!

I can’t even begin to describe how incredible beautiful I felt on my wedding day in this dress. It was everything I had imagined, and even brought my husband to tears when he first saw me. I could not be happier with my choice!

There’s no words to express how grateful I am for finding Olivia Bottega. I fell in love with this dress!

This has been the best experience! I wore this to be married in Las Vegas and as one woman said, YOUR DRESS IS MAGICAL!

I had a disco themed wedding this past weekend and wore this dress to it… I was sparkling on the dance floor and everyone loved it so much! Every person that came up to me complimented me.

My Dream came true with Ella dress
I have followed Olivia Bottega's Instagram for a long time, and the moment when I saw the Ella dress, I knew that it would be mine.
The dress fits me perfectly and I can't wait to wear it on my wedding day (my wedding is 10 months ahead).
Thanks, Olivia Bottega team for bringing me perfect experiences.

I looked at this gown every single day for a year before pulling the trigger and I do not regret it! This dress is absolutely stunning and unique! I was comfortable the entire night and got so many compliments. I am obsessed with this dress! So if you are like me and are skeptical just go for it because it may be the best decision you make! Good luck & happy wedding planning xo

I was reasonably skeptical about ordering my dress online. However, when it arrived it was everything I had hoped for and more. The dress fit perfectly and completely exceeded my expectations. I paired it with the Airis skirt and it matched beautifully, I can’t wait to wear it on my special day.

Perfect dress for my micro wedding! The details on this dress are stunning and I absolutely love the length. I am 5' 5'' and ordered a US 6 on recommendation from an Olivia Bottega sales rep based on my measurements. I would usually order a size US 4, however, I am a true hourglass figure, with a small waist and slightly larger hips. I was instructed that the Size 6 would best accommodate my hips while also tightening enough to fit my waist and bust. For the most part that was true, but, even fully tightened, the bodice is too big for comfort (especially being months away from the big day). I am getting the dress tailored, but I was planning to do so anyway as wedding dresses rarely fit perfectly off the hanger. Overall, I am very satisfied with this purchase as far as quality, price range, and style. Would definitely recommend for any bride looking for something a bit non-traditional but still wanting the "bridal" feeling.

I was surprised to see that the plastic claw clip part of the veil came a teeny bit broken (decided it was not a total big deal since many hair stylist end up bending or teasing the plastic part anyway, to suit hairstyle) but I reached out to OB's customer service anyway to see if they would provide any feedback. They refunded partial amount and were remorseful about the item being damaged. I also got my dress from them and they were super helpful with the whole process. Overall, I love the look of the veil and dress!!!!!!
