The Dress

Worn once Lazaro ballgown retailed for $6000. The bride in the photo is 6 feet tall, making this the perfect dress for anyone 5'10" and under in terms of tailoring and alterations. Purchased as a bridal size 12 and professionally altered to let out the bodice 2". Kept in storage after wearing once.

Measurements: 16.5" across the waist, 17" pit-to-pit, 64" front full length (top of shoulder to bottom of skirt), 58"/5' train from the waist, breast cups sewn in.

Train details: has small hooks on the skirt to pin up the train with loops stitched into the skirt.
Materials: crinoline horsehair skirts with silk floral overlay and a zipper back closure.
Needs dry cleaning/steaming.

Flaws: horizontal rips in the silk on the front left bodice above the waistline, back left bodice by the waistline, rip in the silk skirt and at the hem.
Note: waistline rips would be easily hideable if you tailor for a shorter bride and have to shorten the bodice.
