Hi, do you have a picture of the gown? How much are you asking for? Thanks.

I have no pictures of myself in the dress (yet! - the dress arrives at Sak mid-May, and I will be taking pictures thereafter!) I really liked the style of this dress because it seemed like it was a combination of many different things that I liked in dresses - a little rouching, a few pickups, and tasteful embroidery. Pictures of the dress can be found at the following links:

I have no idea what this dress typically re-sells for, so make me an offer at jar9r at virginia.edu :) Both the ceremony and reception are held indoors, so besides the few yards from the church to limo and back, the dress will not be worn outdoors (so no dirt damage). I will be selling the veil as well, I am paying $405 from Saks, and it is a 2 - tiered veil (shoulder length layer, and a longer train layer). Hope to hear from any who are interested!

Hi! I am willing to sell this dress ASAP! In fact - it is just being returned to me this week from the dress cleaner in New York City (J.S. Scheer - Saks 5th Avenue recommended cleaner). I paid $545 to have them preserve and clean the dress. They said the dress turned out great, and said there is a faint shadow at the hem of the dress that can only be seen upclose. I have not seen the dress, since it was literally shipped by UPS today. Please leave your email address and I can then talk directly with you :) Thanks!
