The Dress
I live in Box Hill and work at Freshwater Place in Southbank (along the river). You are welcome to try the dress in Box Hill after business hours during the week or any day on a weekend and in Southbank during lunch hours or after hours. Get in touch to arrange a time that suits!
2017 Lucy Gown by Rachel Gilbert - Size 1. This dress is still on the Rachel Gilbert website - http://www.rachelgilbert.com/collections.aspx?id=13881
There were only 2-3 of this dress made in each size, so it is almost one of a kind.
I had so many compliments about this dress, it was unbelievable. Raving reviews. Everyone loved it!
This dress is really comfortable and beautiful to wear. I did not want to have to hold the bottom of my dress up or adjust it throughout the night, and this dress certainly ticked all the 'hassle free' boxes!
I could get in and out of it myself, although it is probably best to have someone help do up the zip up at the back. No issues using the bathroom by myself either.
Although it is beaded, it is not too heavy and is easy to move around it. I was definitely on the dance floor for the best part of the night and didn't feel to weighed down by it (it was more my shoes that were giving me trouble!).
The shell is 100% nylon with very detailed beading and the lining is 100% polyester.
The very bottom of the shell of the dress was stood on throughout the night, so there are some beads missing and little holes around the bottom 4-5 cms of the dress. I have the spare beads that came with the dress, but I would say the dress is more suited to someone who requires it to be taken up/hemmed by at least 4-5 cm. I am 5 10 1/2," so quite tall. I have the names of the tailors recommended by Rachel Gilbert to make adjustments which I can provide.
I am a size 8 up the top and about size 10-12 around my hips. The dress will easily accomodate someone with bigger boobs than mine - My bra size normally 10-12 A or B. I used chicken fillets, so I'd say you will not have any issue with size if you are A-C cup. The lining is stretchy so if you are smaller on top like me and bigger around the hips I would say this dress could work for someone with size 12 hips or slightly more.
I have honestly grown more and more in love with this dress as time has passed and almost considered having it taken up to wear as a cocktail dress (Rachel Gilbert made a short version of this same dress). I realised I was very unlikely to actually wear the dress again, even in the short version, so here I am selling it :(
I really hope someone out there loves this as much as I did. Please message me if you have questions and you are more than welcome to come and try it on. I work business hours, but am home most week nights or we can arrange a time on the weekend.
Cheers,
Lucy.
