I am desperately looking for a Melissa Sweet Hallie dress. I am 5'9 and wear size 2-6 sizes. I will buy an 8 though cause i will get it altered. Please someone help me find my dream dress!
I have a 'Leila' dress for sale - looks exactly like the Haille dress but is an a-line instead of a sheath. It's an never worn unaltered sample in perfect condition - size 8. Am looking for $2,000, but would be willing to negotiate. Let me know if you're still looking.
This classic Melissa Sweet Wedding Dress (Style: Sadie. Similar to Hallie.) was worn once at my wedding last year. It has been professionally restored and cleaned, so that each bead detail is perfectly in place (a $400 value!). Because of the work done in alterations and restoration, it looks more beautiful than the day I bought it. It is Ivory Silk Charmeuse with embroidered Diamond White Lace on top. Originally it came with a charmeuse "dusty rose" pink sash, but we replaced it with a light blue charmeuse sash with the original rouching design. You can have both to choose from and I can give you the contact for a fabric store where you can choose any color.
It is a size 8, but this dress would fit size 6 - size 12 women. It has been altered to add more of the manufacturer's Sadie lace at the top so the scalloped detail would stand up straight, as well as to put more boning in the bodice for added strength and support. If you are in the Atlanta area, I can refer you to the seamstress who is already familiar with the dress and sash if you would like a different color or if you need alterations. Because of the lines of the dress, it can fit many body types.
This dress cost $4200 at Priscilla of Boston. I’m offering it for $1300 or best offer. Please email me (anna.boetger(at)gmail.com) for more pictures or to discuss price. I wish that you will enjoy this dress as much as I did!
