The Dress

I will throw in a plain veil if someone wants to buy the dress at full-price (bought for $300 and is unused as I decided not to go for a veil on the day - veil is same length as the dress train). I'm not sure if the dress is crepe, as I"m not good with fabric (it's definitely not silk or satin) but this dress is reasonably thick without being too heavy. I'm 178cm and wore flats so it would be suited in length for a lot of girls even with heels and can be obviously taken up..Professionally cleaned and can be boxed (I've currently taken it back out of the box to hang in the bag for sale). I was desperately seeking a dress with sleeves (hate my arms) and these sheer sleeves, with lovely cuffs made me feel so comfortable but still very elegant. I just loved the simplicity. I had originally decided I needed an- a-line dress as I'm older and felt like straight wouldn't suit me - but the lady in Perfect Bridal in Willoughby put me in this (even though It wasn't what I wanted) and it just was so much more flattering and I fell in love. It has a train and buttons down the back (false buttons via a zip so no tricky doing up of buttons on the day).

Alterations

Minimal. Just got taken up slightly for me and made the train less long (it's still nice and long). Just taken in a little at the shoulders for me too and I added the crystal belt (belt is only is at the front section and not the back ie. stops at the seam on the side - added a little something to it). In total I spent another $1k on the alterations and belt.
