    Hi Bees - 

     

    I'm selling my Rosa Clara Wedding gown. I know there was a lot of interest out there for this gown because I myself tried to find a preowned one in my size without luck, so I had to buy mine from a bridal boutique, and thought I would relist it to try to pass the savings along to someone else. The gown has been professionally cleaned and preserved by the bridal salon. 

     

    The gown is the "clark" style, however, I have had the neckline altered to a sweetheart rather than straight across as the original style shows. I've also had a custom sash made, which is completely removeable if you would prefer to not use it. Ive also had a hidden bustle created and had padding/support added to the bust, so there really is no need for addtional alterations if your measurements are the same as mine, otherwise you may need to tailor it a bit to fit you like a glove or have it hemmed if you're shorter than I am.

     

    Here are my measurements:

    Street size 2

    Bust 34B

    Waist 25.5

    Hips 36.5

    Height 5'8''

    Height with heels in dress 5'10''

    Dress is a size 6, but like I said, make sure to compare your measurements to mine, rather than the dress size alone.

    I can email many many pictures, as I mentioned I altered it a bit from the true Rosa Clara "Clark" style. This dress fit like a DREAM, it was so comfortable and fun to dance in all night, I got a bazillion compliments, and loved how the tiers moved with me. It is such a flattering gown I almost hate to part with it, but I will never wear it again, so it makes sense to part with it and try to recoup some cost and also let someone else save some money. 

     

    Oh, I also have a matching fingertip length veil I'll include with the gown. 

     

    I paid $2775 + tax (for the gown, custom sash, alterations, and veil)

    I'm trying to recoup 1/2 the cost. Asking $1350 OBO

     

    email me at lindsay.l.mangus@gmail.com if you're interested and I can send you pictures! Also, if you're local to Raleigh NC you're welcome to stop by and try it on.

     

    Thanks, Lindsay
