Regular posting will resume tomorrow, but I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Labor Day. Stay tuned tomorrow to see more of this charming wedding above and enter in our new giveaway…

Alencon lace halter dress with trumpet skirt

Beautiful Monique Lhuillier Swan Lake in excellent condition. This dress was worn once for my June 2008 wedding and was professionally cleaned immediately thereafter.

The dress is a bridal size 10. I typically wear between a 4 and an 8 in dresses. I am 5′9 and wore 3.5″ heels. No hem was needed. Only alterations made to the dress were to shorten the train and lengthen the spaghetti straps.

There is one small tear at the very bottom of the tulle and the underside of the train is slightly stained. Neither is noticeable, particularly when the dress is on. Note also that if you will need the dress hemmed, it is likely that the small tear will disappear.

Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. I have plenty of pictures that I can provide upon request. Hopefully you will enjoy wearing this dress as much as I did!

The result of a canceled wedding. All diamond white, the dress is brand new, unworn, unaltered and absolutely perfect. Stole & purse included.

From maggiesottero.com “One-piece, A-line silhouette with pearl button over zipper back closure. The Alen?on lace accents the portrait neckline and falls asymmetrically from the bodice toward the border lace hem. The sheer back neckline emphasizes the exquisite lace. The gown is satin with a delicate tulle lace overlay. Available with matching purse and stole.”

Please email me with any questions and I will be more than happy to help!

Thanks!

This dress is an absolutely beautiful VERA WANG in silk English Netting in a very elegant Ivory color. It is very romantic and “vintage” looking..reminicent of Old Hollywood 1930s/1940s. It looks stunning with a cathedral vail.

I purchsed the dress at a Sample Sale in NYC in July of this year so it has never been worn. The dress has the VERA WANG label in it and was marked $5800.00 — I paid $2000.00. The dress was also marked size 6-8. I am regular size 8 and it fits me beautifully, so anyone between a 4 and an 8 could be taylored to fit. The pictures do not do the dress justice but as you can see it is V-neck/fitted – flared at the bottom with small train.

The neckline has a very striking pleated ruffle that can be kept as is (as in pics) or made smaller depending upon your size. Its like a hemline and was left long so you can do what you like with it. I was planning to have it altered to just graze my shoulders.

The only reason I am selling the dress is because my wedding date/venue changed and I wont be able to wear it.
