PART OF OUR ‘DAWN OF A NEW AGE’: THE “FRANKLIN” GOWN
From the Owner:
Say hello to the beautiful vintage inspired Franklin. This is a sample that is unworn, unaltered, and is in perfect condition. I am actually really sad I didn't wear this at my own wedding! I ended up buying 3 dresses (one other from Daughters of Simone which I LOVE that I wore at the reception and the other I purchased on this site preownedweddingdresses.com for the ceremony). The only reason I didn't wear this gown is because I decided I wanted a contrast between my ceremony and reception dress. Anyway, this dress has stunning detail that looks like it should be way above the retail price. I truly believe this style dress is extremely stylish and makes a stunning yet timeless statement for a bride who wants to stand out. This dress is a size small and the measurements I posted are from the Daughters of Simone website according to their size small. Since it is unaltered, you can alter this dress to fit your curves and body perfectly. I am a size 2/ size small / 5'4" and as you can see in the photos this dress is big for me and hangs on me. I am holding the dress up in the photos so I can see the fit. As someone who purchased their wedding dress on this site, I know how nerveracking it can be buying a dress online before trying it on so feel free to reach out with ANY questions. Or if you would like additional information, photos, or videos, please let me know. Like I said, still wish I had the chance to wear this dress so I hope it can make another bride feel very happy and beautiful on their best day ever. The retail price for this dress is $2310 (that's before shipping, tax, or rush fee if applies). I purchased this as a sample off the floor for $1700. Oh and the train on this dress is AMAZING!
Thank you!
