The Dress

This dress was absolutely magical on my wedding day! Fully adorned with sequins and beading, it sparkles beautifully in both natural and evening light, creating a mesmerizing, elegant look that made me feel so special. The beading adds a stunning shine and a luxurious texture that feels timeless and unique.

I purchased it from The Bridal Centre in Calgary early in 2024 for $2,960 and am now offering it for $1,690. I invested an additional $521 for meticulous alterations at Glenmore Alterations, including adding three bustles for easy movement during the reception, adding cups for a flattering fit, and shortening the dress to just the right length. Altering a fully beaded gown was no small feat, but the results were worth it!

For reference, I’m typically a size XS-S, with a bra size of 34A, and my weight usually falls between 47-49 kg (103-108 lbs). My upper body is one size smaller than my lower body, which is closer to a size S-M, and with shoes, I’m 164 cm tall, making this floor-length dress a perfect fit at that height. The dress had a bit of room due to my pre-wedding weight loss, so it’s flexible for someone close to or slightly above these measurements.

The dress comes with a long veil that I purchased for $300 at The Bridal Centre, which I’m including as a gift at no extra cost. The price is not negotiable.

If you’re looking for a dress that truly sparkles and captures the light, this fully beaded gown could be just what you’re dreaming of!
