Allure Bridal Gown Size 18

Tried on gown and purchased (as I needed a dress rather quickly) however found another I absolutely love, so selling this lovely gem.

As seen in the photos this dress is strapless with lace and beading at the top of the bodice, flower detail on the right hip, wrap waistline (for a more flattering figure), cathedral train with beading down the centre, and sweetheart neckline. I believe the material is satin. It also has a tie for the train.

The dress hasn't been altered in any way, however, can be (rather easily according the the sales woman) and comes with a carry bag. I am not a size 18 - normally a 15/16 but this fit well.

$500

Price: $500
