The Dress

It was purchased from Kinsley James in Walnut Creek for $3,800 and picked up in early April 2023. It has been store with the tailor, professional cleaner, and in my home (smoke free and cat free) in a bag and hanging.

The dress was professionally cleaned by Elegance Preserved and you would get a discount with them to have it preserved (Bay Area and I believe they serve other areas too). There is no staining that I can see whatsoever and I can provide more photos if you need.

Alterations

Alterations:
-It was altered slightly at the hem to fit - 5'7.5" wearing 1.5" shoes but it would likely fit some up to an inch taller depending on how much you'd like it to skim the ground there was quite a bit skimming the ground still.

-It was altered in around the waist slightly to fit (approx. 27.5").

-Cups were added to match my skin tone in approx. size B. These could be very easily removed. The dress also looks sheer at the top hanging in front of a window but on your body it won't be.

-A bustle is also already added which you can see best in the last photo (I still has the video for how to do the bustle and can explain it).
