For sale: An elegant spaghetti-strapped matte satin A-line Demetrios wedding gown for someone size 4-6.
From the Demetrios Sposabella Spring 2003 Collection, this gown is style 4140.
Dress retails at salons for over $1000. I'm asking $499 and will cover the shipping myself.

Description of style, verbatim from Demetrios website...
- White
- Matte Satin
- Princess Silhouette
- spaghetti straps
- asymmetrical bugle beaded embroidery flowing from bodice down into skirt
- attached chapel train
The gown was worn once. I bought it as a size 6 and had it slightly altered to fit me:
- 115 lb
- 5'2" plus 3 inch heels
- bust 34 1/4 inches
- waist 28 1/4 inches
The alterations were limited to the following:
- taken in slightly at the waist
- hemmed
- straps shortened slightly
- bustled (The bustle is a french bustle to highlight the beading in the back.)
I expect it could easily fit a size 4.
Will be shipped in a full-length garment bag.
Would be happy to throw in the tiara I purchased to match it if you like.
E-mail me with any questions.
If you're not sure this is the style for you, go try it on at a salon to see if you like it or similar designs. The left hand column of http://www.demetriosbride.com/locator2.htm has links to help you find locations where Demetrios dresses are sold, but call first to be sure they have this style number in stock for you to try on before you take the time and make the trip to go over there.
Did you sell this gown yet? If not, I'm definately interested. The only concern I have is that I'm 5'6" - can the hem be let out if needed? I plan to wear flats (not heals) with it so I might not need to let it out.
Are there any stains, snags, etc? Did you wear a slip underneath and if so is that included with the dress?
Do you have any pictures? I can only find pictures of the front on the internet.. What does the back look like?
Please get back to me as soon as you can, our wedding is scheduled for 11/22/03.
