About the Dress

I'm one of those people who scheduled her wedding for the Spring of 2020, without knowing that a pandemic was coming, so yes, we had to cancel the big party. Don't worry, we made up for it with a beautiful, and smaller, courthouse wedding.

This beautiful 1930s style dress has never been worn. I think I only ever tried it once when it arrived from Australia in April of 2020. I have kept it in its cover all this time, unsure why, but it is time that it finds a new owner that can enjoy its beauty.

I wish I had the email I sent to Johanna Johnson when I ordered the dress because it has the details I sent her at the time, but I don't have it anymore, so here are some facts about me to help you decide if the dress is the right fit for you:

Height: I am 5'3'' and I believe I told her I was going to be wearing 2''-3'' heels
Bust: I can't quite measure the dress because of the low V-neck, which can open wide. I did measure my bust and it's about 33, so on par with my bra size of 34A.
Waist: I measured it and it's 26'', which is surprising since I am usually a size 27 in pants.

*It has a bustle in the back.

Let me know if you have any questions!
