The Dress

I purchased this dress on Poshmark. I loved it, but decided to go in a different direction for my wedding. I am pictured in the first picture and the first owner is pictured in the second picture.

This dress was worn at the previous posher's wedding. It was purchased new from the store from their onsite stock. I was told it is unaltered and it was professionally cleaned. It remains unaltered. It's a size 10, street size 8.

It's really interesting how the same dress can fit very differently on different bodies. I have very small breasts (if I kept this dress I would have added cups) and I have a big rib cage, 36”. This dress was tight around my ribs and around the arm holes, which are 19 3/8" around. The original owner was a 34DD. I'm 5'2" and would have had to get it hemmed but did not. The original owner was 5' 8 & 1/2" and she wore it with cowboy boots, which I assume were about 1.5 inch heel at the most.

I was told it has no tears or damage. I'd say it has an appropriate amount of damage for having been worn at a wedding. It has loose elastic on some of the buttons. I figured my seamstress could replace the elastic on the buttons easily.

From Designer: "Cotton-style vintage laces create a floral explosion throughout the fitted silhouette, and stand out against the neutral Georgette lining for a multi-dimensional look."
