This dress was my dream wedding dress as a bride. Several people told me I looked like a fairytale princess. The top of the dress is the perfect balance of sexy and classy as it's beautiful open back with see through sides make it so unique. It was a custom make to be pure white. The horse braid around eac layer of the bottom adds the perfect touch and modern look to a classic ballgown.
It was so stunning and surprisingly easy to dance and twirls in! I danced all night long and felt comfortable and confident in the dress at all times!
There is a bustle already professionaly sewn into this dress, which will save you about $300 or more - that's what a paid for this bustle! I would recommend taking it to your favorite seamstress/alteration person to review the bustle, check it, and teach you (AND YOUR BRIDESMAIDS) how to bustle this dress. It takes several people! But so worth it!
If you've dreamed of being a princess as a bride - this is YOUR dress! I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.
The dress has no damage EXCEPT one horse braid at the bottom that can easily be sewn back in place by your seamstress. It's not so much as a "rip" as it is a disattachement. The zipper is strong and in good shape and all beading is in tact and tight.
The wedding ceremony, reception, and all photos took place indoors so the dress has NEVER been exposed to the outdoors. (Stored and transported in a cloth bag).
