FYI: This dress is currently at the cleaners getting professionally cleaned and treated. It will be back in about 2.5 weeks, and I will be able to take more photos then. I`ll be happy to send more photos to anyone who requests them. FYI: The posted photo is one of the only ones I have from the bridal runway show. I`ll take others on a mannequin when the dress returns.

This dress has been sold--it sold the same day it came back from the cleaners! However, a bride asked me to sell hers for her. She was about 5`7" with heels, and the dress is hemmed for that height. Over $500 worth of alterations have been done, including detachable halter strap and 10-point bustle. Has been professionally cleaned and is in great condition. Email me at jleenay@excite.com with any questions. She is asking $2,200.

The bustle was not done by the bridal shop that sold it--it was done at an independant alterations shop. I presume that is precisely how she wanted it done, as she was directly in control of all her alterations choices and expenses. For her wedding, no expense was spared. The 10-point may be overkill for you, but it was just how she wanted it. She even commented on her "The Knot" profile that she loved her alterations person. She adored her dress, and I know someone else will, too.
