The Dress

Brand new, never altered dress from Essence of Australia’s bought for October 2024 wedding. Only worn once when I picked it up at the shop. 0 alterations have been done and has been stored in a protective garment bag. Smoke free home. Paid $2300 total, asking $1250 or best offer. Dress is still sold in stores so you can try on a sample in person. I am located in the northern Illinois suburbs, so I can meet up locally in Chicagoland area, northern Illinois suburbs, northwest Illinois suburbs, or southern Wisconsin.

Selling due to loving a different dress and weight gain. My stomach being too big for the dress caused a slight crease in the waist on pictures 1 and 2. Crease will not be there when on someone with correct size as shown in the model pictures. My current waist size is 28 inches and dress is 25 inches, which caused it to not fit properly. It did zip, so someone with a waist slightly larger than 25 can still make the dress work.

Boning in top makes it super sturdy and flattering. Can we worn as is with the spaghetti straps but can also be altered to be a sweetheart with no straps. Picture 2 shows the straps tucked in to give strapless sweetheart look. Picture 1 shows with straps. Color ivory. I also posted pictures from Essence of Australias website to fully show back design and train.
