Designer Caroline Parkes " Chicago" Wedding Gown- worn once Size 12. (£300)

Date posted: Thursday 26th June
Location: Brooklands

Due to moving abroad I sadly have no room for my wedding dress...

It is beautifully simple in ivory satin and is off-the-shoulder bodice style and princess cut from the waist. The focus point of the dress is a diamante belt buckle on the ivory satin belt just below the waistline. The dress has a small train which I believe is referred to as a chapel length train!

Technical stuff: The dress is size 12. I am 5'4" and the hem sat just above the floor. The only alterations made were to the bust line of the dress which fitted me at the time at 34".

It was worn just the once in summer 2004 (not out of fashion though as is very simple design) and was professionally cleaned afterwards. The box it was returned from the cleaners in is an acid-free box, which apparently means it prevents the dress from turning yellow during storage (it obviously works as the dress still looks fab!).

I am asking just £300 for my dress which originally cost £1600 (granted that was 4 years ago!). I could also throw in a couple of red bridesmaid outfits (size 8 & 14 and the 14 was never worn and still has the labels on it!) and a bridal and bridesmaid tiara that were made to compliment eachother in silver and (fake!) crystal- just ask!

I am having trouble down-loading photos and will add some with some help at the weekend!

Look forward to hearing from you!
