I purchased this dress for my wedding, and loved just how regal and elegant it looked, even though it was not priced in the 1000's. Really goes to show that what ultimately makes a beautiful dress is the cut and quality of the design rather than the mere brand name! The beading is pretty but not over the top, and the silk really softens the whole look. I wore it at both the ceremony and reception with a long pearl necklace, as displayed in the first photo and received lots of compliments :)
The dress remained untouched in my mother's house for four years (I moved across the country right after the wedding) until she brought it back to me year. It takes up a lot of space, which is the reason behind this sale.
