Sometimes a dress is so special you find yourself holding onto it, even when the timing isn't quite right. I bought this piece for my wedding that was postponed during the pandemic, and I kept it tucked away for years because of how beautiful and confident it made me feel. I always imagined I’d eventually get my chance to wear it. Now that I am finally planning my wedding again, two babies have changed my shape, and this lovely size 8 is ready for a new home.

It really is the most flattering gown. The lace pattern is intricate and elegant, and I had the back professionally lowered to create a more sophisticated, open silhouette. It also has a leg slit, which provides a bit of movement and a modern edge while staying tasteful.

Because it’s never been worn to an event, it’s in pristine condition and remains incredibly comfortable. It’s a gown designed for someone to feel effortless in, and I’d love to see it finally get its walk down the aisle.
