Hello lovely bride-to- be,
I am selling this ultra luxurious Vera Wang Lizabeth Deluxe ball gown because we changed the location of the wedding from a church to a beach and this dress was sadly no longer appropriate. So I found another dress. This Vera Wang is SO lovely, it is 100% authentic, it has not ever left the store, and is now in safe storage at the boutique.
If you want to see the dress, I'm happy to organize a video call to view the dress, as well as a call with the Vera Wang boutique to verify authenticity if you want. I have all the tags and receipts. Serious inquiries only, price is negotiable.
I recommend for you to visit the Vera Wang store to try on the actual dress (and veil, and bust piece combination if interested). Lizabeth is a classic style and all Vera Wang boutiques should have it. Ask for the deluxe version to see the same dress as mine. This dress is really brand brand new, never been worn except for the fitting, it's only been taken in very slightly, and can be let out if need be. This is really an amazing deal to have a brand new authentic VW dress for half the price plus the most perfect veil and bust piece. It's really the knock-out package. You will look like Cinderella stepping into the ceremony!
Conditions: Brand new in garment bag from Vera Wang. Original receipt and certificate of authenticity included with dress.
Please note: the dress worn in the posted photographs was the floor sample at Vera Wang's Bridal boutique.
Entire package includes:
- Vera Wang Cathedral Veil - 3 meter veil that is matching with the dress with lace details, retail price $2500
- Swarovski Crystal bust piece - matching with the dress in lace and crystals, retail price $4000
- I also have a pair of Louboutins white leather heels with Swarovski crystals, size 36, original price $1200, (included if they fit)
I paid a total of $22,000 USD for the Dress, a 3 meter cathedral veil, an additional Swarovski crystal bust piece. It really is stunning and gives just that extra bit of sparkle, without being too much.
Hollow to hem measurement: 60"
The Lisbeth deluxe gown has elegant and whispful layers of Ivory tulle and Chantilly lace with authentic Swarovski crystals beaded throughout the bodice and skirt. (The Lisbeth description below does not account for the deluxe version; the only difference between the "regular" and "deluxe" version is the Swarovski crystals that are sown onto the lace parts of the dress).
The following description is from the Official Vera Wang website:
"Strapless floating tulip and rose lace ball gown with open back and classic corset detailing.
Lisbeth is the pinnacle of fairy-tale romance. Imagine Marie Antoinette’s voluminous yet structured ball gowns in the court of Versailles. Lisbeth possesses exactly the same kind of regal elegance.
At the heart of this Luxe gown, as with the other dresses in this collection, is an applique of tulip and rose lace, one of my boldest lace patterns yet. Oversized tulip and rose blossoms are cut apart and fused together to create the ultimate floral symbol of love. The combination of the two types of flowers gives the lace a rich, tonal pattern.
When I set out to design this collection, I wanted to re-examine lace, such a traditional, quintessential fabric, but I also wanted to reinvent it with a pattern that really popped. So I love the extreme size of these flowers. There’s a kind of drama you don’t get from more traditional lace patterns, and it’s very different from the more spidery, delicate laces I’ve used in the past. I didn’t completely abandon tradition, however. I still love the delicacy that a really fine Chantilly lace adds, so there are flashes of that appliquéd onto the gown, too. It’s subtle, and so sophisticated.
Covered with dense, tonal lace appliqué, Lisbeth’s classic corseted bodice delicately nips and sculpts the waist with boning into a V-shape, really drawing the eye to the center. The hourglass shape of the bodice is a beautiful contrast to the airy, frothy layers of tulle in the skirt. The open keyhole back is especially alluring. I have always felt that just a hint of skin adds such a modern touch.
Then there’s that dramatic, classic ball gown skirt, a voluminous explosion of tulle layers. The front of the skirt is blank, while the front and back sides have an applique of lace blossoms tossed onto both sides of the skirt. The negative space on the front of the skirt gives you such a nice contrast to the textures of the lace. It makes the lace on the sides feel more special, because you get little flashes of it, instead of it being so bold
Dreamy and diaphanous, Lisbeth effortlessly embodies everything about my return to romance, a thoroughly contemporary take on classicism".
