Worn June 2023 and professionally cleaned July/August 2023. Label says size 48, which is a 16 US. Details that I loved include the lace work, delicate looking but sturdy spaghetti straps, floating tulle fabric, and well constructed sweetheart neckline. The dress fit like a dream.

I felt so beautiful and confident in this dress. It highlighted my figure, and photos cannot capture how jaw dropping it looked in real life. I tried on countless dresses with various price points, and the dress quality paired with the price tag caught my attention.
I hope you love it as much as I do.

Includes 1.5 meter veil.

Details on cleaning process:
Glitter design held well after professional cleaning. Base glitter is stable and did not change. Fine glitter on the second layer came off because Riki Dalal spray glued it on with a fine mist. Elegeance Preserve tried to minimize this effect in a number of ways, however. Special attention was taken for the hem of the dress. The cleaning work along the hem was done by hand. After cleaning, dress went through a final "rinse" to remove any cleaning agents throughout the dress. During this rinse, Elegeance Preserved made sure there is very little agitation. The dress is wrapped and slowly moves side to side with little agitation to achieve the rinse but also minimize any impact on the glitter. Final result did not change the appearance of the fabric. Dry cleaner stated that up to 35% of glitter could be removed with cleaning, but I could not really tell the difference. Dress looks good as new to the untrained eye.

I paid $2800 for the dress excluding alterations.
