The Dress

Selling an absolutely stunning Sarah Seven Caterina gown from her Fall 2021 collection and worn for my August 2022 wedding in Illinois. I had the gown professionally dry cleaned immediately following the wedding by Sarah Seven's recommended dry cleaner, Elegance Preserved. It is in excellent condition with no flaws or tears, and is obviously sparkling clean and smelling fresh! There are a few pearls missing from the bottom of the gown as they are quite delicate and honestly fairly unavoidable to lose a few on the bottom as you walk/dance!

This is a "split size" from Sarah Seven - so it a size 10 on top and size 8 on bottom. For reference I am a 36C bust.

I adored how I looked and felt in this dress - its a real understated yet chic fashion moment with the leg slit and pearl appliqués covering the dress. The best part about this gown is how it can be dressed up and made your own with different accessories. I wore this with the Sarah Seven heart gloves and added the bow pin (both of these items are NOT included in this listing) - but I have seen others accessorized this with an overskirt or puff sleeves. There are truly so many possibilities. I found this gown to be very flattering with an almost corset-like effect of giving me more of an hourglass waistline which I typically do not have haha.

I am 5' 1" and wore a 3.5" heel on the wedding day, and the dress was hemmed to that length in the front. There is a train in the back and the dress has been altered to include a French bustle (3 hooks - super easy to bustle). Additionally, I had the hips taken in slightly, cups added to the bust so a bra is not necessary, and the bust taken in slightly as well. All measurements included in the listing reflect the final measurements of the gown.

Happy to answer any additional questions you may have or send additional pics. Thank you for looking!
