Margareta
The Margareta wedding gown is all about demure glam with its high cut boat neckline, long adorned sleeves, slim-fitting bias cut skirt and an open back that drops away off the shoulders right down to the waist.
Finished with a fine beaded belt.
A note from Karen — “Margareta is one of my favourites because the beadwork is so sensational. I wanted it to feel organic, so if you imagine a very misty day or if you have a little bit of rain trickling down the window, that is how it all drops down delicately. The high classic front contrasts with a true statement back – she is cut down to the waist and sits wide – showing off the drama of the gown.”
The Margareta gown is now part of our Archive Collection and is no longer available in KWH stores.

Size & Fit Instructions
Model wears size AUS & UK 8 / US 4.
When determining the size of your dress, the most suitable size to order will be determined by your body measurements compared to our size chart and how firm you would prefer the fit. To find out how to take your body measurements check out our sizing guide.
This gown looks like a structured, tailored wedding dress but by beading the sequins onto a bias cut skirt these dresses have flexibility in the fit and will accommodate many different body shapes. Because of the flexibility of the fit, this should reduce the amount of alteration work required to tailor the dress to your liking. The weight of the sequins allows the dress to skim the body in a figure flattering way.
Hem length from the waist to hem is a minimum of 117cm / 46 inches. Due to the hand beaded nature of these dresses, some may be longer than the minimum length stated, however it is expected that you will need to have your dress hemmed to your height with your wedding shoes on. Please keep this in mind based on your height and the height of your wedding shoes. If you choose a firm fit, this could affect the hem to sit shorter.

Care Instructions for Beading & Embroidery
The beading and embroidery on this garment has been hand-sewn exclusively for KAREN WILLIS HOLMES.
Each and every gown is different and unique. Please treat the garment with lots of love and care when wearing and storing the gown. With most designs the beading & embroidery is sewn in sections, joined by a common thread. If the thread is damaged, it is a possibility that some loss of sequins may occur. Any loose threads must not be pulled as this will result in loss of beading &/or embroidery, instead the end of the thread must be sewn and finished off. It is recommended you take care if wearing jewellery or beaded shoes, they might catch on the beading detail.
