2023 Galia Lahav Utopia - - - Excellent Condition. I must have tried on 80-100 wedding dresses and my last stop was Galia Lahav where I tried on the Utopia and fell in love! When you know, you know!

I am sad to be parting with this beauty, but it is ready to be worn by the next bride. The Utopia dress was so stunning, our guests gasped when I walked down the aisle - truly unforgettable! My husband teared up during our first look. This dress made me feel stunning and so beautiful on the best day of my life! I hope the gown does the same for you on your special day.


Description from Galia Lahav: A whimsical and light ball gown, the Utopia features a sheer, strapless sweetheart neckline corset and pleated skirt with 3D embroidered appliques cascading from the bodice to the hem. The intricate embroidered tulle and floral embellishments on the bodice are an absolute masterpiece.

Galia Lahav couture bridal dresses are custom-sized to fit the bride. This beautiful dress fits standard US size 6-8 with room for alterations to size down if you desire. The measurements taken at the New York City Galia Lahav showroom are:

Bra size DD cup 
Bust over all 98 cm 38.5”
Waist 79 cm 29.5”
Lower hip 102 cm 40”
Upper hip 84 cm 33”
Waist to floor is 128 cm with a 2 inch heel 


I am including, at no extra charge, the Cathedral length, magnificent 11 foot long raw edge white veil (3.4 meters) which retails for $750. I tried on both an ivory and a white Galia Lahav veil. I chose white because it aligned with the white 3D embroidered appliqués!

The Utopia dress is in beautiful condition! I did not get it dry cleaned because I only wore it for a few hours and there is barely any flaws visible at the bottom, only slightly on the inside of the dress. ***I do want you to know that there is a very small rip in the under part of tulle that can easily be altered, especially if you are shorter than I am [removed]. It does not change the quality or integrity of the train! I am happy to send you direct images of the dress.*** I hope this gown will be your dream-come-true! Please reach out to me with any questions you may have!

Alterations

Removed crinoline/petticoat in the skirt.
Added lining in skirt with two layers of ivory organza so it is not see through and added cups. Stunning 11 foot long trimmed raw edge veil (3.5 meters/138 inches) 3 inches to become a 3.4 meters/135 inches veil. I added a bustle which is comfortable and makes it very easy to dance in after your ceremony. Please feel free to ask me any questions you may have!
