The Dress

Hello!

My wedding dress shopping was toward the end of the pandemic, making it a challenge to secure an appt. at a Boston area boutique (who carry Australian/New Zealand-based designers anyway). So - I shopped away online ordering a total of 3 entirely different dresses/styles/designers - and price points! (including 1 from Lulus of course). I ultimately went with a Jenny Yoo dress as it seemed to more closely fit our venue and vibe of our event.

However! I absolutely LOVE all things Grace Loves Lace, so am crushed I didn't get to wear this flattering off-the-shoulder Sloane dress. I originally purchased it off Poshmark from someone whose wedding had unfortunately been canceled. The dress was authenticated by Poshmark (common practice when selling designer items over $500). Fortunately it passed with flying colors, confirmed it is in fact an original GLL unworn gown, which is still in the original dress bag, neatly folded in the signature Grace Loves Lace box with bow. (Think I'll miss displaying the box the most!) The dress has not been worn by anyone, nor has it been altered. No marks, snags, discolorations whatsoever (as it wasn't worn as runway dress). It's in pristine condition, size S. (Which I'd describe as a street size 2, yet with plenty of stretch for any interested in highlighting their curves!)

**Note: for any unfamiliar with the GLL brand - the Australian designer creates the most unique, beautiful, flattering (sexy, depending on how fitted your style is) lace dresses - which do include some stretch in the material, hence how we're able to squeeze ourselves in them. I'd describe the Sloane dress as a one-of-a-kind, tasteful, classy/yet-sexy off-the-shoulder lace dress that is incredibly comfortable/forgiving, as well as flattering. Most of her dresses (last summer anyway) skew boho style, appropriate for summer/beach venues - yet also a winter evening event due to its classic all lace style with long flowy sleeves.

I hope that helps!
