This ivory Venus dress is brand new - never worn or altered, and has the original tags on it. The retail price is $1,000 but I am selling it for only $500. I bought it during my first dress shopping experience with my best girlfriends and quickly snatched it up because it was the only one like it and it fit what I was looking for. Now that I've had some time to plan my wedding, what I thought I wanted and envisioned has changed. I would prefer a strapless dress but would like this lovely gown to go to a good home first. The fabric on this dress is beautiful silk shantung, but not heavy or overly restrictive. It does have some structure to it which is nice, as it smoothes any lumps and bumps!
This dress is ivory, silk shantung material, and incredibly elegant. Part of me hopes I won't regret selling it! Rest assured that since it was purchased it has hung in a garment bag in a smoke-free and pet-free home. Again it is unaltered with original tags on. The picture of the person in the dress is not the actual dress, it just shows the dress better. The picture of the dress on the hanger is the actual dress. I am happy to send additional photos if you are interested. My wedding is 8/31/14 so I do not have any photos of me in the dress (but can try on and send if you would like). I'm 5'9", athletic build, and the dress was plenty long for me (I could totally wear heels with this dress). I am a 36 C bust and I wasn't bulging out of it, so there's some room for busty gals in this dress!
I am here to help answer any questions and make sure you feel amazing about purchasing this dress. Thanks for looking!
