The Dress
The gown was purchased from the Vera Wang salon in Chigaco, USA in 2012. It is labeled US 8, I am normally a street size NZ10 and I also had the bodice slightly taken in a week before my wedding.
The Vera Wang Ethel dress is made using two types of fabric - stretch silk mikado fabric (bodice) and hand-cut swirling tissue organza flange (skirt). The overall effect is a perfect fit to contour your body, creating a stunning romantic silhouette, while being modern and sophisticated.
It is a couture wedding gown identified by its clean and structured silhouette and layers of folded, skillfully arranged organza fabric. Ethel flirts more with couture than other dresses in Vera's Classics Collection by showcasing a mastery of cutting and folding. Each swirling tissue organza flange of the skirt is hand-cut. The look is high fashion, yet incredibly romantic despite the lack of beading, lace or petticoats. Additionally Ethel is made of a new fabric of stretch Mikado, allowing innovation in form. This also allows a little give in the shape, making it extremely flattering, and allows the dress to be altered for a number of shapes and sizes. This dress is extremely versatile for any mood or occasion.
The dress is accompanied by a matching Vera Wang ivory grosgrain ribbon that is unworn as I purchased a crystal sash through the following link:

The dress is available for pick up, can be posted or possibly arrange drop off. Happy for interested buyers to view dress and try on.
It has been dry cleaned and kept in its original dress bag. It has never been folded or packed away and has always been out of sunlight.
Please note, the bodice of the dress was slightly altered by the bridal salon's seamstress to allow a more slightly flattering sweetheart neckline. There are absolutely no stains or tears on the dress and I can provide close up photos of the dress if requested.
