About the Dress

The dress is simple, elegant, and flattering. It is a lighter-weight dress that is great for summer/destination weddings. The buttons run down the back of the dress with a hidden zipper for ease of getting dressed. The dress has been worn twice, as the wedding and reception were in different places on different days. It could easily be altered or embellished to personalize it to your style (ex. changing out the straps, adding a belt, or shortening the train). I am selling this dress because I hope someone else can enjoy it as much as I did.

Upon request, I would be happy to include the handmade veil (60" with a simple stitch around the edge), the matching handmade necklace (a string of pearls down the back to match the spacing of the buttons), and the earring set.

From the designer's website: "With its sexy, hip-hugging fit-and-flare skirt that is so flattering and its shallow scoop neckline with spaghetti straps, this crepe gown will turn heads. Small details, such as the lightly draped bodice and fabric-covered buttons down the back of the dress finish off the gown with a polished look."

The seamstress advised me to wash it in a machine without an agitator on the delicate cycle in cold water with Tide detergent and then hang dry. This worked perfectly both times and saved a lot of money by avoiding the dry clears.

Alterations

The dress was hemmed and fitted to my measurements. The straps were altered in the back to fall straight down, as opposed to originally coming towards the center. A bustle was also added
