The Dress

Worn to a summer wedding in 2019, the dress was super comfortable to wear and felt very light. We had a fairly long wedding day and never once did I feel like I wanted to change into something more comfy.

I’m 5’7’’ and was wearing 3 inch heels on the day and had no alterations done to the length of the dress.

I’m between UK size 6 and size 8 and the dress is quite forgiving (elastic around the waist) so I felt comfortable sizing down slightly.

The dress was washed according to instructions but will need to be ironed. There are no visible tears or marks on the dress, the train of the dress has slight dirt marks around the hem but not very visible and not visible at all when worn.

Dress comes with GLL hanger, GLL box and the original garment bag.

Contact me if you have any questions or for more pictures and exact measurements. I’m based in London and happy to show you the dress in person if you want to try it on.
