The Dress

Hi There,

I had a change in wedding plans so I'm selling my Jenny Packham Eden Wedding Dress that HAS NEVER BEEN WORN OR ALTERED (all tags are still attached). It comes with original dress bag as well as extra beads and crystals. Detailed pictures attached of the dress as well as better up close online pictures of other brides wearing the dress. It is a UK 10, but I wear a 2/4 in US size. This dress is being sold for $4000 online as used.

It is two pieces: a silk charmeuse bias-cut slip, with a lightweight tulle sheer over-dress with glass beading and crystals intricately embroidered in a Noveau design, and featuring rose/ lotus type flowers. The cap/ flutter sleeves are very flattering to the upper arms and the v-neck allows you to either show cleavage or cover up completely, depending on how you choose to alter it. It is floor length, flows beautifully, is comfortable, features gorgeous draping, and does not need to be bustled. It is gorgeous and the rare type of dress that is cut so it is figure flattering whether you are thin, straight, or very curvy.

The craftsmanship on this dress is beyond believable. It has great exquisite vintage-y details, and a sophisticated look. A piece as timeless and elegant as this can work anywhere from a historic mansion, country club, or a garden and for winter or summer wedding. It can be styled as bohemian chic, vintage bride, or traditional, fashion forward elegance.

About the dress:

Jenny Packham's Eden gown, was perhaps the the most publicized, praised and media- featured dress of her 2010 collection, featured in blogs and magazines including Bride, Town and Country, and Marie Claire. Synonymous with a contemporary and glamorous approach to design, Jenny Packham's 2010 Bride collection incorporates luxurious and sensual fabrics with excellent craftsmanship and individuality. Slim lines, very feminine cuts, including low cut v-necks and pieces cut clearly on the bias (which is so figure-flattering), as well as traditional silhouettes in silks, satins, chiffons, organza and tulle create the dramatic and eminently feminine designs for which Jenny Packham is celebrated.

As always, Packham takes her inspiration from vintage style and makes enough use of beautiful and delicate details, such as a jeweling, straps, sleeves and embellishments around the bust and shoulders, that make for really special dresses. She stays away from the massive skirts thus creating a less structured bride, and maintaining the ethereal look of her previous collections.
