The Dress

This is a couture gown from Kenneth Pool, original $10,900. The gown has a tight-fitted tulle bodice with boning and a double zipper in the back, and a low dropped waist. The skirt features layers of seamed tulle and hand-sewn paillettes that shimmer in the light like petals or leaves. The petals have light sequins that sparkle.

It was altered and worn for my garden wedding. I received many compliments on how beautiful and unique it was. There is one area where a small plastic lining has broken through on the corset top, but it can be fixed in alterations (probably less than $20). It has been professionally cleaned.

I made approximate guesses on the measurements. I am 35 bust, 27 waist, 38 hips so it was altered to about that. I wear size 6 normally. I am 5'8" and wore 3 inch heels, so I never had the dress trimmed in length.

It is a truly gorgeous gown perfect for a vintage, romantic wedding. I’ve decided that I don’t want to keep it, but I really want it to go to someone who will love it as I did.

Notes: I will only sell IN PERSON. I live in Western Mass. less than 2 hours from Boston and 3.5 hours from NYC. I will NOT ship anywhere (let alone overseas) and only accept cash.

I had a custom three-point bustle created; sewn-in 34C cups; taken in at waist and chest.
Professionally cleaned.
