The Dress

Dreamy, romantic dress from Monique Lhuillier's 2018 Spring Collection (made in 2019). This is a gorgeous silk white/nude strapless sweetheart corset dress with a drop waist featuring a unique sculpted ballgown with a full circular skirt. I added extra length to the train so it is truly a one of a kind piece. It has intricate french lace over a nude underlay. The style is “Alexandra”. Absolutely stunning, handmade item fit for someone special.


The dress has never been tried on, altered or worn. It was purchased at the Joan Pillow Houston bridal boutique.

In addition to the dress, for the price listed, I will include the veil with lace and horsehair trim for free. This veil cost $1,800. I will also include additional fabric that was going to be made into sleeves or a bolero (the extra lace is the exact same lace as the dress) which cost $1,500. This extra lace was going to be used to add off-the-shoulder sleeves and also to add extra lace around the veil. We added extra length to the train which cost $1,000.

I am a 5'7", 34b, Bust 34, Waist 26, Hips 39 and typically am a size 2 or 4, however bridal sizes are very different so we ordered a size 8 knowing we would need alterations regardless. When we did measurements, I was a few centimeters over the size 6 measurements for the bust, so the tailor at the bridal salon told us to go with the 8. She said that most brides go up 1-2 sizes because wedding dresses run differently. The dress remains unaltered and unused with tags in perfect condition. We had a change of plans because of COVID so I needed something more simple, I never even tried it on after picking up from the boutique (didn't want to fall in love with it again when I knew it wasn't going to work for the new venue). This dress is waiting for the perfect bride!!

Size: UNALTERED, Size 8
Color: Silk White/Nude

Please note that the pictures 2-4 are from when I tried on the sample at the boutique. The 3rd picture shows the veil that will be included. In the 3rd picture I am wearing a sample bolero (not made in the same fabric and it is not fitted...I tried it on just to get an idea of what sleeves would look like with the dress, but when you purchase you will get the extra lace which will be enough of the fabric matching the dress to make a custom bolero/sleeves). The last picture is the actual dress with the veil. Message me if you want me to send you more pictures of the physical dress...I will take it out of the dust bag that the bridal boutique provided for pictures ONLY. Currently it is being stored in my cedar and temperature controlled closet for the safest keeping.

*Retail price listed includes dress, veil, and extra fabric to be used for custom bolero or if extra fabric is needed during alterations.
