FS: Sophia Tolli "Ashley" Gown sz 12

[~*Kathy*~]

Just wanted to say I LOVE that dress, it is soooo gorgeous. A girl I know is getting married in that exact dress!

I'll post some pics in the morning. Today has been brutal and right now, I just wanna eat something and catch up on messages.

 

I'm not over worried about selling it..if no one here wants it, I'll put it on Ebay next week. I already did that once and the dress sold in like two days for forty bucks more than I wanted to get. Thats one reason it doesn't worry me to buy online...there's always someone who wants a gown that doesn't work out for another bride! This is dress #3..lol. I should probably be ashamed to admit that, but hey..I'm keeping one of 'em.

As promised...some shots of the gown. Light being what it is this time of day I had a hard time capturing detail, but used the macro setting to get as much as I could. The dress is clean...I can't even see that it's been tried on. It's in pristine condition, including the hem and underskirting. I wouldn't think it would even need a cleaning for a wedding, but that would be up to the bride. For whatever reason, they cut the size tag in half...but only the size tag. lol I guess a lot of salons do that...no idea why. It's a 12 though.

 

Tried to get some "validation shots" showing the designer's label and such. lol

 

 

 

 

 

Thats a nick in our blinds, not a loose thread. haha

One more questions is it a light dress or heavy

[MarieSam]

Awww Savannah it's beautiful, and that totally sucks you bought it under the guise that it was described as being ivory -- clearly it's not, it's white as snow and that chick needs to take that layer of fog off her eyes, lol.

 

Anywhoo, I'm sure you'll get a buyer with ease, the dress is gorgeous!!

I've absolutely no idea how to answer this. lol It felt pretty much like every other bridal gown I've ever handled...not a destination gown, but a regular wedding gown. It's satin, lace and tulle...so...I guess maybe you could hit any local bridal shop with a Tolli or Sottero sample of the same materials and see what it feels like to you. It's very common weight to me...didn't feel any heavier or lighter than anything else I've looked at and I've looked at WAY too many at this point. lmao

I know, right?! I'm still "salty" about it...what the hell was SHE on that day? She made a big deal of it too, saying she ran to the warehouse to look again "just to be sure". I pulled this thing out of the box and my eyes teared up from the glare .....thats just how freakin white it is. hahaha!

[BillysBride]

Just an update...I'm listing it on Ebay today, most likely with a starting bid of $175....I'm not sure but I think I'll do a 7 day listing like I did for the last one.

Good luck! I think im going to wait a few months till I get a wedding dress since I am doing the BL6. Thank you soooooooooo much for putting up with ALL my questions and such I do appreciate it A LOT!!!!

I wish I had known about this before I bought my dress a couple weeks ago. I am going to wear this dress It is amazingly beautiful and light, perfect for a beach wedding. I got it in the ivory/spun gold colour.

 

Anyone thinking about buying this dress definitely should, it is GORGEOUS!
