Monique Lhullier Candy dress in pink blush in great condition, dry-cleaned and stored in garment bag in a smoke-free home. No stains, odors, no loose beading, or tears. Only worn for 30 min photo shoot, never worn for my wedding. Beautiful BLUSH pink color. Watch out, if you look at an older Candy dress or sample you may notice color changes over time. My dress is purchased in 2017 still maintains it's beautiful original color! There is a hidden inside loop and hook bustle that allows to adjust the length of the train/hem. I'm also including a custom-made matching overskirt with custom beaded belt. Original ribbon belt is not available.

My measurements from the seamstress for alterations were 34 bust, 26 waist, 36 hip. I'm 5'2" and wore 4 inch platform heels. I ordered a size 4 in the dress and had it altered to my size, I'm usually an size 0 in my usual clothes. The dress fills out a bit when worn, so the measurements when laying flat might seem less than my actual body measurement. The bust and torso of the dress also act like as a corset to keep everything in. The narrowest part of the dress hits high on my waist, right around my lower ribcage and is the narrowest part of my torso. My seamstress said there was still an bit of extra give in the zipper area which she could use just in case I gained weight, but I lost weight the month right so the dress ended up a bit looser than I wanted. You could also replace the cups if needed to adjust your fit. I asked for cups with a bit more thickness to help with fit and comfort
*Cup size: 34 (I'm usually an 34A or 32B in Victoria's Secret depending on my weight. I lost weight right before the photo shoot and had to put in an insert into the bra pad)
*Chest (armpit to armpit when lying flat) 15 inches
*Upper waist/lower ribcage (narrowest part of the dress) 12 inches
*Hips: its an A line dress so it does not hug the hips
*Length of the front (top of the dress to bottom): 50 inches
The dress photographs differently indoors and outdoors because the layers of blush tulle create different colors depending on the lighting. I also included photos of the overskirt which also changes color depending on the lighting. It hooks in the front and has an opening to see the dress underneath. There's 3 colors of tulle in the overskirt, which you or your seamstress can remove any layer to change the color if you wish. The overskirt has its own beaded belt sewn on, which you can also remove.
Please contact me for videos and for close-ups of all the details such as the beading (little star sequins!). The inside silk slip has a added layer of crinoline you can remove; the crinoline protects the hem from dirt and debris.There is a little bit of fraying from the photo shoot and dry cleaning on the protective crinoline, but it's under the dress and unseen and of course you can remove or replace this crinoline.
Please contact me for more photos and videos available upon request. I want to be forward and honest about the conditions of my dress. I'm happy to disclose all conditions before sale!
