So this is my dress, Alvina Valenta 9517, and I’m really considering changing the little sash that it has. I’m just not feeling it. It’s a beautiful dress, but I would really like either no sash, or a different one. The problem is, I’m not sure what I should be looknig for.
Any ideas?

Pretty! To be honest, I’m not sure the dress needs a sash. What about using the sash to add a splash of color? Or something with tulle and wintage-y beading or a brooch?

Would you consider a more “bling-y” sash or would that be too much?

I love your dress! I just bought my Alvina Valente dress AV9102!
You shoul look at that dress and the sash that goes with it. But you should contact the store you purchased the dress. They should have others

First – Your dress is gorgeous! Personally I like the sash but I could also see it without the bow, maybe a simple vitage broach or something with crystals as well.
Let us know what you decide!

Love the dress w/ the sash. I would actually look to have the bow in the back of the dress.

Hmm good ideas, I’m liking the idea of having some sort of pearly broach put on in place of the bow. I think thats the only reason why I do not like the sash. PS: my sash doesn’t have that broach on the bow, its just the bow. =]

Beautiful dress!! I like the idea of changing the sash. Do you have an idea of what you would want instead of the current one?

@Mrs.Sunflower: Ahhhh….I love the dress and think the sash you just posted would really compliment it well (soft and romantic).
