The Dress

Gutted to be selling my beautiful Essense of Australia wedding dress, but it seems a shame to just have it sitting in a box forever.

*****

Description from the website is as follows:

Fit-and-flare silhouette

Large-scale floral appliques are placed throughout the gown

Plunging sweetheart neckline with illusion tulle providing all-day support

Floral details decorate the wide-set straps

Sheer elements are used throughout the bodice and the back to add an ultra-modern, sexy look

The skirt flares out below the hips for a show-stopping flourish

Layers and layers of tulle creating a regal, voluminous skirt

*****

The finish is ivory over rum, hence the tone of the underskirt. It also has the added glitter.

The dress is a UK size 16, although wedding dresses are notoriously small, and I'd say I'm more of a 14.

The measurements taken, to which the dress was adjusted, were: 40" bust, 32.5" waist, 42" hip. In terms of length, I'm just over 5'10" and wore virtually flat shoes.

If you'd like more photos then let me know.

This hasn't been dry-cleaned as it doesn't really need it, and because I didn't want to waste the money on professional cleaning, in case it doesn't sell. However the price reflects that.

RRP [removed], plus alterations.

Alterations

Has been taken in at the waist and hips. Measurements given are not my current size, but the size I was exactly when the adjustments were arranged.
