The Dress

My stunning size 10 Karen Willis Holmes Ophelia dress is up for grabs! Worn once at our wedding last month. Has been professionally drycleaned by MyDressBox ($250) and is in brand new condition!
No marks, no pilling, it’s perfect and comes all wrapped in a pretty box! It’s far too pretty to stay in my wardrobe!

I paid $4998 for this dress from Paperswan, plus then spent $990 with a professional dressmaker to have the following done as Paperswan don’t include any alterations in their prices:

- Bustle done: This is so you can pin the train up for the reception to dance etc so it isn’t in the way. This was a big job as there is 8 layers of tulle!

- Internal corset sewn in: This is to make the dress feel more secure & ensure the dress doesn’t fall down being strapless. It pulls in and laces up under the dress and is completely invisible - makes your waist look smaller too!

- Take hem up slightly... in 5ft 9, and wore 3.5 inch heels so dress will suit most as can be made shorter. I’m pretty tall, was just under 6ft with heels on.

Absolutely stunning dress! Welcome to come and try on, I’m in Nelson. I will include courier if out of Nelson to the lucky new owner. Please feel free to private message me any questions. I can provide all receipts for dress, alterations and the dry cleaning. ?

It’s perfect!
