About the Dress

The dress is the Amsale Charleston. It is ballgown style with a scoop neck. The dress has pockets, which you can’t tell unless you know but honestly it just made the silhouette of the dress sit better and made my waist look smaller. I bought this used from another bride who had the dress custom bustled during alterations. Dress was dry cleaned and wrapped immediately after the wedding!

I bought this dress because my original wedding dress turned out to be a disaster, and I had to scramble to find something last minute. This dress just so happened to fit me like a GLOVE and was absolutely beautiful, so I had no further alterations done. It was a stunning gown and truly made me feel like a bridal princess. Very minimal markings at bottom of the skirt - PM me for any additional photos! The material is silk radzimir.

Alterations

Alterations
The dress was taken to an Alteration Specialist in NYC from the original purchaser who paid $1400 for alterations. They altered the top and waist of the dress as well as the length. The dress was delivered as a size 2 and it was altered to be between a size 0-1. I am 5ft 5inches and wore 3 inch heels, but if you are 5'6" it will be the perfect length with that heel height as it was just slightly long on me.
