This satin wedding dress is free to a good home - to help create more good memories! :)

There is some slight mould on it so it needs to be cleaned but is still in good condition otherwise (it was only worn for a few hours after all! - and drycleaned before being stored away). This can potentially be dyed and turned into a ball dress.

It is around a size 10 with a halter neck and some beautiful embroideries as shown in the picture. There is a train that can be easily hooked up.
