The Dress

I am the original owner of this exquisite Maggie Sottero Grace Lynette wedding gown. The color is diamond white with a champagne ribbon around the torso. She shimmers and shines in every kind of lighting. I still have the receipt and bridal protection bag it came in. I would consider it in new condition as it is not torn nor dirty. However, the bow in the back is significantly altered (see alterations description). My Grace Lynette has been lovingly stored, and is waiting to wrap you in elegance for your special day.

Alterations

Alteration 1: Length was shortened as I am 5'2". I wore flat Mary Jane Sketchers, but no one noticed my shoes because the dress touched the ground. I also wore 2" heels in some of the pictures, and those sandals do not show, either, but it kept the front hem of the dress just off the ground.
Alteration 2: I didn't want a sleeveless dress, so I had my seamstress create straps from the large ribbon in the back. The original Grace Lynette has a bow in the back that goes almost to the floor. The bow in the back of this dress is now much shorter. This dress can be worn with or without the wide ribbon straps as I detached the front part of the ribbon to create the strapless look again, but the back part of the dress still holds the ribbon in place in case you would like to create the wide strap look again (see last photo).
