Vintage styled heavily beaded wedding dress. Loose, winged, flowing sleeves. Beaded lines going down dress. For my plus sized ladies, I absolutely love how the beading accentuates my hips, waist, bum, and tummy area. I felt really comfortable in it. I was originally worried about discomfort in the underarm area due to the beads but the way the sleeves are positioned, I had no issues with chafing in that area. It zips up the back and has a clasp at the top. I’ll be sad to see this baby go, but it needs a new home! I’m a bit on the short side so I had the dress hemmed by approximately 3” as it was originally super long as shown in the photos. I am getting it dry cleaned before selling, if you wish to get it dry cleaned yourself I will take 30$ off of the price. Even before hemming, some beading unraveled (as expected.) this is exclusive to the bottom of the dress, with so much beading at the bottom it’s not noticeable, although if you want to avoid this, I recommend seam glue from any fabric store, this will help keep the beads where they are and prevent further unraveling. I loved how the dress flowed while dancing, it gave me great shaping up top and nice flow on the lower half as well as the winged sleeves. Only worn to try on, once when I got it, and once while hemming, as well as the big day. Very lightly used and has been in a protective bag since. The sale would also include the protective bag.
