The Dress

I had my eye on this dress from the moment I got engaged and it was such a dream to wear! While it's a hard decision to sell, I want another bride to have the opportunity to enjoy it, who may not have the budget to buy it brand new.

It has an elegant, understated front with deep V neck line and straps that sit perfectly across the outer shoulder to show the neckline.

The back is an absolute jaw-dropper and what sold me! It has a deep plunging V-shaped back that is super-flattering. I have quite wide shoulders and a muscular back so I was super fussy about wanting a dress that didn't make it look too broad. The V-shape draws the eye in to where the buttons start before running down the back.

It's a beautiful French crepe material which is firm enough to make you feel snapped in, but stretchy enough to dance and sit comfortably. The way it sits across the bum and then cascades to the floor is another fav feature and I got so many compliments!

The length of the dress is just enough to give an elegant short train out the back, but not too long to be annoying while you're moving about. It also comes with a finger-loop so you can lift it off the ground to get in and out of cars and keep it off the ground while you're dancing or having photos taken.

It also has a bustle so you can secure the train to just below the bum for extra comfort when the dancing begins.

The dress is in excellent condition and has been professionally dry cleaned and carefully stored in acid-free tissue paper since to maintain its condition. It also comes with the original dress hanging bag from Felicity's Bridal boutique.

RRP $3,700 from Felicity's Bridal in Auckland not including alterations, dry-cleaning and storage box.

I'm based app. 60mins North of Auckland and try-ons are more than welcome. I can also courier the dress anywhere in NZ at the buyer's expense.

Alterations

Minor adjustment to the position of the cups to add lift.
