Ballgown

❤ Charlotte Elizabeth Bridal ballgown, size 24, blush, including veil and hoop skirt ❤

Stunning fluffy ballgown dress with sweetheart neckline and gorgeous floral details across the bodice, waist, and hem. The bodice was taken in in several places to fit a size 20 top with a 42DD bust, had the hem shortened to fit me at 5 foot 6, and has an added bustle in the train.

Also included is the underskirt/hoop (not pictured), which I wore in the pictures above from the wedding for extra volume. This doesn't have a size label, but it fit me beautifully at a size 22-24. The elasticated waist imo doesn't have enough stretch to go higher than this, but could go lower.

Also comes with a Richard Designs cathedral-length veil with scattered pearls and a comb with pearl details.

Everything was only worn for the wedding day with minimal time outside, so it's all still in fantastic condition. However, given how many layers there are in the dress, I've listed it as "Good" as I can't guarantee there aren't any minor tears in any of the inner skirt layers from wear. I don't think there are, but I don't want you to be disappointed!

The dress measurements I took, laid flat, and after alterations, are:

- Half waist: 53cm (lowest fitted point before the skirt, which on me sat underneath where a bra would fit, but above my belly)
- Bust: 59cm (front) 56cm (back)
- Bodice length (armpit to waist): 20cm
- Total length at front: 138cm
- Skirt length (from bodice): 110cm
- Skirt length, including train: 186cm

Please note that because these are laid flat measurements, they should be seen as *approximations only*.

I paid £1800 for the dress, £100 for the underskirt, and £200 for the veil.

Everything included has been professionally dry cleaned by The Wedding Dress Company (see pictures) and is currently in a storage box protected by tissue paper.

Please note that I don't have facilities for trying on the dress at my house.
