Perfect Condition sample dress, brand new with original tags and never worn for a wedding. 100% Dupioni Silk Paloma Blanca Style 4156. It's ready to wear! Never altered, looks to have never left the bridal salon.

• Crossover ruching is extremely flattering to the waist!
• Trumpet silhouette
• Beautiful built-in bustling with bubble hem

• Train from back: 75", from Floor: 29" (Cathedral Length)
The dress is 100% real silk. No other fabric comes close. The silk is light and crisp and reflects a soft glow. It lights up the face beautifully (exactly what people mean by 'radiant'); it looks gorgeous in the photos. Silk also 'breathes' and is cool and comfortable to wear. If you've ever seen/felt real silk, then you know.
This dress is pictured in my studio without any extra underskrts or crinolines. The professional photos of this design do appear to include a crinoline underneath so you can see the difference and decide for yourself which look you prefer.
This dress is in perfect condition. I could find no dirt or dust at all including on the hem; clearly this dress has never been worn outside the salon.
This gown has been priced extremely low to give brides on a budget a chance to wear such a gorgeous dress - you'll save over 70% off the original price!
A preservation-grade keepsake box including a companion protective layer comes with the dress at no extra charge to help with transit and storage; see photo. The handle on the outer box makes an easy carrying case, perfect for destination weddings or simply for ferrying your dress to and fro.
NOTE: Would be happy to arrange a video chat and show the dress in real time for additional views and to help answer any questions. Currently am set up for Skype or Facetime but we could look into other apps. Contact me for details.
I realize that a wedding dress can be a major purchase, both in money and emotion (it was for me!). I totally get that no one wants to spend all that money and then be stuck with a dress that they can't use. The ability to return a gown would have helped me feel a lot better, so I'm offering a return policy. Please help me by abiding by the details so that if you return your dress, another bride will be able to enjoy it just as much.
Honesty and transparency are very important to me. If you'd like to hear what other people who've worked with me have to say, here are some reviews:

Contact me for more details. If you live near the Boston Area, feel free to arrange a visit to come see the dress and try it on. My home studio is pet-free, smoke-free, and hypoallergenic.
Be well!
