The dress was bought at Poffie Girls in Gastonia. I had such a wonderful experience here and loved the dress right away. Something I would have never chosen for myself! Unfortunately, my wedding did not happen, and we called it off. I hope that this dress can bring the same amount of happiness to another bride as it brought me.
The dress has never been worn. It has cups that were inserted to be able to be worn without undergarments. It was also taken in in several places. These include the chest, waist, hips, and length. I am 5'3" but was wearing at least 2-3" heels when being altered. It was still skimming the floor when finished. There was beading that was removed under the arms to keep from being scratched while wearing it. There was also tacking done from the top lace layer to the layer underneath so that there would be no shadows. There was a simple bustle being made as well. After alterations I believe it would be considered between a size 16 and 18.
