This beautiful Patchouli gown by Galia Lahav was worn once by me in March 2018.
I am so sad to part with this haute couture gown but someone else deserves to look and feel as amazing as I did on our wedding day. This gown was made in Israel over the course of one year(as all Galia Lahav dresses are). All fabrics were hand beaded and embroidered with pearls. It is pearled french lace backless dress, back decorated with rows of pearls, irregular and voluminous hem. The pearl strands falling along the back of the gown are part of the gown that is extraordinary, as you dance the night away the beads compliments your moments beautifully.
The dress itself is such a statement nevermind with the addition of the matching veil. I loved every second of being in this gown and it truly was a dream come true.
The train of the gown measures around 2 metres or 6 foot long with the custom-crystal bordered embossed cathedral veil measuring around 3 metres long or 9.5 foot long. The gown and veil will come in their respective garment bags.
This gown was custom made to my measurements, being:
Height 5'3 Bust overall 89cms Waist 70cms Upper Hip 85cms Lower Hip 96cms Bra Cup Size C
Further measurements can be provided if you so require but given the nature of the fit of this gown, it should fit between an American or Australian size 4 to an Australian size 8. I wore Christian Loubiton shoes on the day which added a further 10cms to the height.
The retail price of this gown and veil is $16,850.00.

Once this gown arrived from overseas, it fit like an absolute glove this dress is so light and airy and has a stretchy material as I never lost any weight from the time I got fitted until the time it arrived. It was not a problem as this dress fits with a forgiving material, smaller or bigger.
Dress is not dry cleaned or steamed and has signs of obviously use to the bottom of the dress, light dirt from my own wedding and one or more small holes in the bottom of the dress from wearing heals. Please note that this dress is over 70% off and has been worn to a precious wedding so dress is not brand new and has obvious signs of wear. Dress sale is final and will not be retuned for any reason.
