Previously Owened Wedding Dress, Size +/- 10
(Link to more photos below)
Size: Wedding Dress Size 10*
*This is my best guess (see measurements below), since there is no physical tag on the dress. But it has a laced back, so it is forgiving should you be a size larger or smaller (and/or if you gain/lose weight right before the wedding).
Bust: 37.5"
Waist: 29"
Overview: Strapless, lightly boned bodice, laced-back, full length with train, A-line shape, attached petticoat underneath, pure white (not off-white), soft fabric with a modest sheen, clean
Bodice Description: The front bust area has bead and sequence detailing (please see photos for reference). When I got it, some of the beads were a little loose and I never fixed it for the wedding -- it isn't noticeable unless one examines the dress closely. Below the bust line, at the waist, the fabric is lightly gathered/rushed asymmetrically to the left waist, which is then adorned with concentrated sequence and beads. Beading and sequence continues along the back of dress, surrounding the laced back. I personally think the back looks prettier while worn than in the photo, but please view the attached images to get an idea of my description. Also, the bodice is lightly boned through the front half; the boning is invisible from the outside and just adds structure to the strapless frame.
Lower Half Description: The dress is a basic A-line, but with two asymmetrical gathering. I had them carefully hand stitch the hem and then had it taken out again so I could resell the dress -- thus it is the original full length that one would find at the store, allowing for you to adjust to your own height. The bustle was similarly removed so you may have it bustled to your liking. There is an attached petticoat underneath the dress, which gives it its soft A-line form.
Additional Considerations: The dress will need to be hemmed & bustled to match your height. It will also need to be steamed to remove wrinkles received during storage and transportation.
Asking Price: $200 + cost to ship to you
Congratulations and happy dress shopping!
