This dress was only worn for a few hours on my wedding day. I've had it professionally cleaned since wearing. There aren't any stains or visible signs of wear. There are variations in the weave of the silk skirt (see picture), but that's just the dress and any variations aren't seen when wearing.
The dress is very detailed and well-made. It’s an ivory/champagne/cream color with a vintage look to it. I bought it as a size 2 and didn’t make any alterations to it although I did replace one of the metal strap claps after the dry cleaner broke it (see picture). If you typically wear a size 2 at Anthropologie or other BHLDN dresses this should fit you great. If you have bigger arms the lace sleeves may be too tight. I’m a 34B and the bodice left enough room for a slightly padded, strapless silicone bra. I am 128 lbs and 5'9".
Please contact me if you’d like to see additional photos. If you live in the Chicago area and would like to see it/try it on in person, you're welcome to do so!
Note: The first two photos below are me in the dress on my wedding day. The third is a stock photo from the BLHDN website that shows the full dress on someone. All the others are pics of my dress taken today.
The description from the BHLDN site is below.
