The Dress

This is a truly stunning dress that has barely been out of the bag since it came home with me!

I am only selling as I changed my mind on it due to it not feeling like me. But despite this not being my perfect dress, no one can deny that it is gorgeous (and hard to get hold of in the UK apparently!). The only time it has been out of the bag is when I took it to a seamstress to have her pin it and show me what it would look like taken in as I am a size 8 and it was hard to visualise.

I have checked the dress over closely and it being a sample dress, there are one or two marks on the underside of the dress right at the hem. There is also one incredibly small patch at the bottom of the dress where the fabric looks as if it has been overstretched ever so slightly, but I honestly did not notice until it was an inch from my face as I was inspecting it! The fabric isn't misshapen at all, and no one would notice. Aside from the hem being slightly more worn with it being a sample dress (which would be a non issue if it had to be taken up), there is not a single other imperfection on the dress! You are more than welcome to ask for more pictures from different angles as at the end of the day, I want someone to appreciate this dress and feel stunning and confident in it. If you live close by (Brighton, UK), you can even take a look in person if you like!

I bought this dress for £1,000, which was reduced from £1,650 with it being a sample dress. I am really trying to get back whatever I can for my dad who paid for it, and who will be buying my new one. I am asking for £850 as I truly feel that it is a fair and just price considering it is on the exact same condition as when I purchased for £150 more! I hope you will agree, but if not I am willing to negotiate for the right price if you really have fallen for this dress. I am sure we can work something out, but as I hope you will appreciate I am just trying to recover as best I can from this miss-step.

Less is more with this dress, as it is quite a classic simple shape. However, it certainly makes a statement with its beautiful shaped train with the delicate lace appliques, making it feel very modern. It has a slightly plunging sweetheart neckline and intentionally placed lace that extends slightly on to the gown's skirt, hugging the hips to show them off! There are visible seams on the back of the skirt that further highlight the shape of the body without clinging and showing every little bulge, which makes it ideal! It has a zip up back that is covered with fabric buttoning that carries on almost all the way down the dress. Plus, it is perfect for a summer wedding as it is so lightweight!

I would mention that this dress is terrifying to look at and think about taking it in as it is so perfect, but the appliques on the train can be carefully removed and re-positioned and the seamstress I took it to did not seem worried in the slightest! Please don't worry about how it would be taken in as from what I have found out, it would not be too awful a task.

If you have any questions at all, please feel free to ask away! I will be listing on other websites, but most important for me is to make someone happy so if you are interested, please don't hesitate!!
