The Dress

I was incredibly happy with my dress and I would love to wear it again. However, as that doesn't seem likely to happen in the near future, I am hoping to find it a good new home.

My favourite thing about this dress was how lightweight and comfortable it was. The shell is rayon embroidery on polyester chiffon and the lining is silk/spandex. I got married in August and was cool and comfortable the whole day. I also loved the beautiful details on the lace and its fitted shape.

The dress has been professionally dry-cleaned and is in good condition, the only thing that you will need to do is add a new hook and eye at the end of the zipper.

With respect to straps, I asked for extra material when I ordered my dress so that I could get the straps altered to be more comfortable. I have additional extra material that I will include so that you can either alter the straps back to their original shape or have them fitted precisely to your body. I would recommend having the arm straps altered to fit you perfectly as these are essential to the structure of the dress.

I am in Vancouver (Canada) and would be happy to arrange a meeting in the city if you want to try on the dress.

Alterations

I had the following five minor alterations done:
1) I shortened the train to fit me (5'4" in 3" heels);
2) I added flexible underwire into the bodice to add support;
3) I adjusted how the arm straps connected to the bodice;
4) I added a 3-point bustle; and
5) I let out the waist by about a 1/4 of an inch.
