The Dress

The Alex Perry Elyse dress was sold out at net-a-porter and I understand why it’s rarely in stock. This was the first thing I purchased for my wedding. It is beautiful and made me feel the same when I tried it on. It was supposed to be my reception dress but the day of the wedding it was missing. I’ll admit I was heartbroken but that’s a story for another day. I have no regrets from the big day with the exception of not getting to wear this on the dance floor. The craftmenship is amazing and perhaps the best of the many dresses I’d purchase for that weekends celebrations. I am hesitant to sell it because I love this dress but have no reason to wear it and want someone else to actually enjoy it on their big day. See description below from the net-a-porter website.

Alterations

The top band was taken in about a 1/2 an inch or less to make my boobs a little more secure when dancing. I just measured and it’s now 33 7/8 to 34. I think on a person it would be more like 34. Bust [removed] **only area that was altered. Originally 34.6** Waist - 29.1 Hip - 45.7 Length - 25.6
