The Dress

I purchased this dress on Poshmark. I loved it, but decided to go in a different direction for my wedding. I am pictured in the first picture and the first owner is pictured in the second picture. If you are a local and would like a try on first, please reach out.

This dress was worn at the previous posher's wedding. It was purchased new from the store from their onsite stock. I was told it is unaltered and it was professionally cleaned. It remains unaltered. It's a size 10, street size 8.

It's really interesting how the same dress can fit very differently on different bodies. I have very small breasts (if I kept this dress I would have added cups) and I have a big rib cage, 36”. This dress was tight around my ribs and around the arm holes, which are 19 3/8" around. The original owner was a 34DD. I'm 5'2" and would have had to get it hemmed but did not. The original owner was 5' 8 & 1/2" and she wore it with cowboy boots, which I assume were about 1.5 inch heel at the most.

I was told it has no tears or damage. I'd say it has an appropriate amount of damage for having been worn at a wedding. It has loose elastic on some of the buttons. I figured my seamstress could replace the elastic on the buttons easily.

From Designer: "Cotton-style vintage laces create a floral explosion throughout the fitted silhouette, and stand out against the neutral Georgette lining for a multi-dimensional look."
