Badgley Mischka, Alice

This dress was my dream dress, purchased from Adina's Bridal ($475) in January 2023. It shipped while I was traveling internationally and I arrived home after the return window had closed. Though it still had the tag on it, it was VERY dirty, especially at the bottom. I then had the dress professionally dry cleaned ($120) and it is now restored to near-perfect condition. I had to remove the tag for the cleaning as the shop told me that the heat would have melted it - I did keep the tag, however, and would be happy to send it to you, along with my proof of purchase, if desired.

I did not end up wearing the dress for my spontaneous elopement in October 2023 -- as someone with an "apple" body shape, I found it was too tight in the midsection and too loose in the shoulders, and I didn't have enough time to get it altered. As-is, this dress would be perfect for a woman with an inverted pyramid or rectangle/ruler (straight up and down) body shape.

I've invested nearly $600 into this dress, and while I still love it and wish it would have worked out for me, I can't justify keeping it as I wore another dress and will not have another occasion to wear this one. I'm VERY flexible on price as I mostly want it to go to someone who loves it as much as I do! Please propose a price that works for you and I'm sure we can come to mutually agreeable terms.

Back zip
Poly-spandex; polyester lining
Can be shortened - I'm 5'5" and found the dress was far too long for me (which probably explains why the dress I initially received was so dirty at the bottom - without alterations, for most women it will drag on the floor/ground)
True to street size, but not the friendliest silhouette for women (like me!) who gain weight in their midsection
