The Dress
You deserve Oscar De La Renta for your wedding day! You do!
This beautiful, authentic Oscar De La Renta "Annabel" wedding dress is elegant, timeless, and incredibly flattering. I’ve never looked this good in my life and I know I never will again
I got so many compliments for this dress, and more importantly, I felt just so damn glamorous all day.
It is an ivory silk faille sweetheart tableau gown – the fabric is gorgeous. And the peplum overlay is what gives it a bit of a twist on a classic design.
Although it says US size 8, the dress does run a little small – so if you’re a 10 or 12, it’s worth considering – you can always get it altered a little (wedding dress seamstresses are amazing, aren't they?!). The bodice is boned, but really comfortable, and meant it felt like it was falling down so I didn’t do any of that ungraceful tugging.
I also paired it with a beautiful lace bolero that I wore for the reception and looked like it was part of the dress. Lots of people commented on how gorgeous that looked and like I had a second dress. You’d be welcome to that too if you wanted (it wasn’t expensive, but looked fantastic)
I’m 5’11 and wore 3 inch heels (tall husband), and had it taken up a bit at the front so it fell beautifully (it was really long!), and I also had some small, discreet hooks put in (hidden under the top layer) so you can hook up the train and have it all one length (see photo) or if you want to dance (we did one of those fun / cheesey choreographed dances and the dress was perfect).
The dress comes with Oscar de la Renta original tag and carry bags.
It’s in really great condition. It has been professionally dry cleaned, there is a tiny tear in the inside lining (misplaced shoe, but you can’t see it) and also a few other little marks on the very bottom. I am confident that these will not be visible to anyone. It will look like a new dress.
Original purchase price was GBP8,000 (NZ$15,000ish), I’m selling it at a fraction of that.
If you want something gorgeous, timeless, and absolutely breathtaking, this is for you! A little bit Kate Middleton, a bit Grace Kelly, a bit sopranos - Jamie Lynn Sigler got married in this dress in 2016, (she said it made her feel like a princess) and Brides magazine included it in an article listing the ‘most beautiful celebrity wedding dresses of all time’ ( https://www.brides.com/gallery/celebrity-wedding-dresses-famous-brides?mbid=synd_huffpowed#slide=1 )
But you can’t buy this dress new in NZ, so it’s going to totally blow everyone away when you walk down the isle!
If you want to see picutres close up I am happy to send you more and we can skype/ facetime so you can look it over if that helps.
