Selling my stunning Wearkstatt wedding gown - a truly elegant and glamorous dress that was $4000+ new when I bought it. Looking to sell it for a fraction of it's original price but open to serious offers. It's in beautiful condition. I wore it twice (I had two wedding events over a weekend in the late 90s) and then had it professionally dry cleaned and stored as recommended in a cool dry place in a very protective dry cleaners box (which I still have and will happily provide to the buyer) until I took it out to photograph for this posting.
The photos don't do it justice - it's made of the finest materials and is absolutely stunning on - it's a timeless classic design, very simple, modern and elegant. It's pale ivory with a subtle waffle pattern and a lovely plain satin panel on the back with a row of satin buttons. It comes with a separate underskirt.
I don't have the original receipt but do have correspondence about the dress purchase and alterations from the Wearkstaat boutique in NYC where i purchased it.
