The Dress

Dress purchase and designer:
Purchased in 2022 for full retail price ($4200) from Babushka Ballerina in Brisbane (can provide order proof if required). It comes from a Romanian designer, Divine Atelier, and is actually quite rare to find in Australia.

Dress is from their ‘21 collection but still see brides on their instagram with it regularly:

Condition:
- Dress has been professionally dry cleaned by Kathron’s in Brisbane ($450) and stored in a clothes bag since
- Dress didn’t go through mud or dirt but did pick up ‘dancefloor juice’ along the bottom. Dry cleaning helped but there are still faint marks which dull the bottom. Underlayer is good, it’s the thicker material. Ideally would suit a slightly shorter bride who could chop it off or if you don’t mind a very faint mark (photo included)
- No tears in sheer lace but some loose threads which would be easy to trim
- Zipper pull tab on the back has a small bit of paint missing, not really noticeable but you could replace if you were bothered (photo included)

I loved this dress and loved wearing it - I felt comfortable and confident all day and night! It’s a beautiful and versatile dress so hopefully it gets another wear :)

Happy to send more photos if needed and answer any questions.

*veil and other accessories not included
**assuming all local brides who would like to see and try on but let me know if you would prefer a delivery option

Alterations

Alterations and sizing:
It has been altered (additional $500). Nothing on the top but the train was shortened and it was slightly adjusted around the waist/hips. I ordered a US6 but post alterations probably fits a AU8 on top and AU8-10. I still have the additional fabric from the train if you would like it.
