The Dress

I absolutely loved wearing this dress at my November wedding, It felt comfortable and I had so many comments about the detail. It's in the Ivory/blush colour way meaning it has a subtle mixture of both colours, not a pure Ivory. It has a chapel length train and lots of leaf/flower detailing on the lace which makes it really unique.

Size
I usually wear a size 14/16 and have 34D Boobs. The dress label is a 16 but naturally wedding dresses come up small. I had a corset back added which is beautiful and was told by my seamstress that the dress would likely now easily adapt to fit a 12-18. The corset is boned so I did not feel the need to wear a bra on the day but would recommend a smaller busted lady to perhaps explore options.

The dress was taken up from its original length, I am 5 ft 3 and wore boots with a small wedge heal.
There are 10 layers of skirt fabric in total, a mixture of silk and tulle. I also wore a Jupon Hoop which is included with the sale. The dress feels quite heavy on the hanger but the A line shape helps evenly spread across the body so I didn't feel uncomfortable wearing it.

Condition
Our wedding was on a dry day so the dress didn't come off too badly. There are mud/dirt marks on the under silk layer which should be easily cleaned but these cannot be seen when the dress is on. I have shown these in the video but can send more images on request.
I am pregnant and haven't been in the position to clean these myself but was recommended to spot clean the silk by hand to remove.
There is also a section of beading on the bust that is coming loose but is not noticeable.

Included in the sale
Dress
Jupon Hoop
Original Hanger & Dress Bag

I am happy for brides to visit my home in Northfleet, Kent to try on/collect or I can arrange insured courier delivery in the UK if needed (cost to be quoted and discussed)

Any questions, do get in touch as I really would like the dress to find a new home.
