This beautiful altered Anna Kara dress is for sale well under what I paid for it. I paid $2500, plus over $1000 worth of alterations, for the gown in 2019.. I had it altered to add a delicate lace back with non functional buttons and gorgeous bell sleeves, giving this gown a classic and ethereal/Greek goddess-y vibe. It has never been worn. I repeat, it has never been worn! The only time it has left the house was to be shipped from Sweden to the boutique I bought it from, and again when I brought it home. Original gown bag and plastic slip cover included.
Due to the pandemic, my husband and I had to cancel our wedding and we eloped instead, and this lovely custom gown was just too fancy for our elopement. The model in these photos is 5'8 and is wearing 2-ish inch heels (I'm 5'10 and was planning to wear this dress with flats, so it's plenty long enough to allow for alterations to make it shorter, if needed), has a 36D cup size, and wears a size 6 pants. The dress is a size 40, which is roughly a size 8 in the US. When I had it altered, it was not made any smaller, the original size was kept in tact, as I was gaining weight due to wedding and pandemic stress (who can't relate!?). The details on the dress are truly spectacular, and it is in pristine condition. Absolutely no discoloring, stains, spots, tears, loose threads, nothing. Zipper and clasps work fine. Again, it's in such great condition because it has never been worn!!
I'm happy to answer questions, send more photos, take specific measurements etc as requested, just let me know! I'm sad to see this gorgeous dress go, but I hope it can make another beautiful bride happy on her big day, since I was unable to wear it on mine.
