The Dress

This was the dress of my dreams! I wanted a dress that had a flattering neckline as well as an open back, and this fit my vision so well. I also loved the lace train on it - it was just the right size. The best part was how comfortable this dress was - I stayed in it all night, super comfortable to dance in. The dress fit perfectly, and did not feel too tight or uncomfortable at any point throughout the day. I wore this one time, and it was dry-cleaned within a week of wearing it.
There are no zips and it just slips right on, the fabric is stretchy and there are cups inserted so I didn't wear a bra. I have the original box and gown bag which I will mail the dress in to the buyer.

Alterations

The low V neck was taken in a small amount, less than an inch; the thin lace fabric in the back was removed for a more open, elegant back; a thin strap was added across the upper back for comfort and style (can easily be removed); tulle on train was removed, as I felt it did not fit the overall style of the dress; hidden invisible snaps added to create an elegant french bustle for the reception & dancing.
