Please Help Me Out *BRAND NEW* Oleg Cassini Gown
So here's my story: I purchased my gown a year ago this month after absolutely falling in love with it. The store convinced me to get the dress in the next size up from what I had tried on, even though I was adamant about trying to lose weight. I picked up the dress a few weeks later and it was (alter-ably) too big. In the past year, I've gotten pregnant and given birth to my first child, and in less than 2 months, I've lost my baby weight PLUS 10 lbs and my dress is now too big. It is completely unaltered and I MIGHT be able to have it altered to fit. My problem is, since our wonderful son came at an unexpected time, we have planned to push the wedding to next year (it was planned for October of this year), and I have set a goal to be back in shape by then. I have been 50 lbs over weight for some time, on top of gaining 35 lbs of pregnancy weight, so with my sudden weight loss, I've become inspired to lose the rest that has been haunting me for 4 years, now. Because of this, I have decided that I need to sell my current dress, and begin looking when I'm at my desired size and weight for my replacement dream dress. I absolutely LOVE my gown and maybe I'll end up with the same one in the proper size once I get where I want to be, but for now, I think it's time to part with this one. I am trying my hardest to be a stay at home mom, and money is tight right now, so I feel like it's in better interest for our family in the long run.
Now enough of my babbling--about the DRESS 
It is an Oleg Cassini CWG377- Lace Fit N' Flare, in IVORY, Size 12. Beautiful Floral detail! You can view the David's Bridal link to see all of the details and a picture. It's been stored in a non-smoking household the entire time, in the David's bridal bag. It will need to be cleaned when the new owner has it altered/prepared for her big day as it's gotten some dust on it from when I recently tried it on to see how "far gone" my attempt to keep it was. I don't wear face makeup so there are no stains of that kind from trying it on or anything like that. I would like to get $900 for it as I paid full price last year, but I wouldn't mind talking to anyone about any offer they might have. If I can help someone else get their dream dress, and help my family get into a better spot right now, that's what's important to me. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my post. Please email me at kate.sandgren@live.com with any interests at all in the dress and please don't be afraid to make me an offer if you are interested
