Hi Misty!
Sure I can send you some pics of the dress. Any particular things/angles you were looking for? I am in the Los Angeles area if you wanted to see it in person too. I am open to offers but the tag sale price was $1899.

I would like to see what kind of bustle, if any, that the dress has. Is the dress in need of cleaning, bead replacements, or other repairs? Has the dress been altered, or anything else. What color is the dress, cream with the gold beading, or white with the silver beading? Whatever pictures that you take would be useful. Thanks

Hi Misty,

Here`s the link to my post... Http://www.partypop.co.uk/Forums/Wedding_Dresses/m420601.htm
It`s an ivory and gold gown, and it`s a sample that I bought from a Glamour Closet sale (www.glamourcloset.com). They have huge blowout sales once a year of gowns they need to move out because they have new inventory coming in. They only sells samples that are in perfect condition or in gently used condition and can be cleaned or mended.
My dress is a sample. It has had no alterations, so it is a true Reem Acra size 10. (http://www.scarlettscloset.com/store/pc/viewContent.asp?idpage=38) It hasn`t had any alterations or a bustle put in, so it can be modified exactly to how you want it. I`ve seen pictures of it with a pretty standard bustle and I`ve seen it with an elaborate French bustle. I haven`t priced getting either one done. It does need a cleaning, as it was tried on in the store, and there is a small amount of beadwork that needs to be mended. There is a little bit of wear and some snags along the zipper, but again, Glamour Closet only sells gowns that can be cleaned or mended to perfect status again. From what I understand it should be a simple process when sent in for the other alterations. It seemed to me when I bought it well worth the price I paid to have a few missing beads and a snag. I will take pictures in the morning in the daylight so it doesn`t have the flash distort it. Please feel free to email me directly at (soon 2 be lucy a (at) aol dot com). If that email address doesn`t make sense then send me yours. It is much easier to email pics directly than to post them here.

I also have a Reem Acra Paradise for sale in the ivory color with gold embroidery. It is in near perfect condition (only a few tiny beads missing - not noticeable!) - worn once and then cleaned and preserved. It was a size 14, but slightly altered to fit a street size 10. Paid over $6000 for the dress not including alterations.
Approx. Measurements are:
Bust: 38"
Waist: 31"
Height with Shoes: 5`9"
I`m posting a picture of the beautiful bustle! Let me know if you are interested... I also have more pictures of the dress. Thanks!
