So, she decided to try on some pieces at the Claire Pettibone’s boutique, but did not actually like any that much. But finally, one trunk show later, Sylvia saw the designer’s new Notre Dame dress, and knew it was made for her. She added:

“I was enthralled by the intricacies of the back detail, the colourful beading, the lace. I always wanted to be different than the norm during my wedding week—and a black and blue dress was certainly different!"

“The back detailing with the sheer back made me feel sexy but classy, while the drape of the sleeves made me feel like a queen.”
