The Dress

This beautiful dress was a dream! I received so many compliments in the Berta Como 22-06. I have a LOT more pictures and videos but can only post 8- happy to send more. This dress has been professionally cleaned and is packed away! It was one minor TEAR in the hem- I sent my seamstress pictures and she said she could easily fix it for $50, but rather than take it to her (an hour away) I’ve taken $150 off the price (as I know seamstress prices fluxtuate!) happy to provide pictures of it. I bought this gown full price for over $12,000 and am asking half of that. It has minor alterations- the inside lining of the sleeves was let out slightly for more arm space and I had gussets added to the armpit (can’t see at all- just adds fabric) so that I could dance and party properly arms overhead! The hem was tailored to my height- 5’11” in heels and a bustle was added (similar to French bustle) with three layers- I have a video how to do it but it’s pretty easy (requires help). This dress was an absolute dream and I adore it but obviously will never wear it again so happy to pass along :)

Alterations

Inside lining of arm sleeves taken in and shortened about a quarter inch, hemmed to 5’11”, similar to a French bustle added in three layers.
