Selling my Berta wedding gown! This is a sample gown that was purchased in Berta's Flagship store in NYC February 2020 for my summer wedding that was planned to be in a grand ballroom. Due to Covid, we ended up getting married in the backyard so this super sparkly beauty was just a little too much. I ended up purchasing another much more casual gown. No tailoring/alterations. Absolutely stunning. So sparkly! More details below in comments. Also available for less on competitor site.

Additional DETAILS
Silhouette: Mermaid
Neckline: V-neck
Waistline:
Sleeve Style: Spaghetti Straps
Back Style: Low Back
Dress Length: Train
Very comfortable, flattering, and hugs in all the right places. There is a built in spanx-like undergarment sewn into the dress. The zippers are intact and function but does need some resewing on the inside "spanx" layer. Also hand sewn built-in bra.

This is a Berta sample gown--a one-of-a-kind design that was worn on the runway and was never recreated/put into production. Plunging illusion neckline, hand sewn sequin detail throughout. Very low back with illusion lace. Im told this was a 2018 design. There are several small imperfections to the gown that a seamstress/tailor could very easily fix.
sammer1938
Small tear in seam to the back at the area of bustle about 2 inches long as shown in photo. Areas of missing/sparse sequins to the back at illusion sheer lace as shown, but can easily be replaced. There is a small hole as shown to the end of the dress that looks like a stiletto or shoe may have torn, easily could be repaired as well or if you are short like me, may be taken anyway with alterations to the hem.
sammer1938
There are loose/stray threads to the dress due to the nature of it being all hand-sewn and a sample. There are two layers to this dress. The top layer is all sequins that becomes more sheer towards the train of the dress. Underlayer is a satin material with lace detail.
No alterations were done to the dress. Serious inquiries only please.
sammer1938
Again-please keep in mind this is a sample gown and there are noticable imperfections as discussed. I'll be happy to show more photos and give specific gown measurements if interested. For reference I am 5'3 and 115 lb, 32 B cup. Waist 25, Hips 36. Price is firm for now, no offers at this time please. Original Berta garment bag included. Thanks for looking!

sammer1938

swimmer9284
Hi! This is such a stunning dress! Was the bottom hemmed, and can it be let out? I’m 5’9” and need as much length as possible ☺️
sammer1938
@swimmer9284 Hi!! It has not been altered or hemmed. It is definitely very long on me, it might be okay for you depending on what heel you plan to wear. I can get the exact measurements for you if you would like?
swimmer9284
@sammer1938 thank you! Yes if it’s not too much trouble. Shoulder to the bottom of the dress would be perfect
minimel430
Thank you for the offer! I already purchased my dress and although this one would be soo perfect for my reception dress, it’s now out of my budget 😭
aka_dre
Hello, is this still available?
sammer1938
@aka_dre yes it is!
swisler
Is the tulle train detachable? Does the dress come with the tulle train shown in the one picture?
sammer1938
@swisler I tried on a tulle train at Berta to see what it would look like, but did not purchase. Not included. Thanks for looking, lmk if interested! :)
lucreziamanc
Hi there/ i m very interested. Would you mind to send me pics on my email? Thank you so much!
sammer1938

aleciabrianna
Is this still available on a different site
sammer1938
@aleciabrianna i think my “subscription” expired a while back but I could repost if you are interested!
aleciabrianna
@sammer1938 is there a large cost difference
sammer1938
@aleciabrianna what are you looking to spend? Poshmark takes a significant percentage so depending on what your price range is, yes could give you at a much better price. (I paid over 3k for it after taxes) but want to get it out of my closet sometime soon! Its such a pretty gown.
snics3
Do you know the style number?
sammer1938
@snics3 its a runway sample. There isnt one

lhagnell
Hi we are interested - is it on the other site now? thanks
sammer1938
Actually I just pulled out the reciept—there is a style number— 17-205
sammer1938
@lhagnell oh great!! no it expired but i just reached out to them to get it back on. Ill keep you posted. (Preownedweddingdresses.com)
lhagnell

marla_vang
is this listed on the competitor website?
amyb15
I can't seem to corroborate that this is 17-205. Do you have a link to a picture/showing of 17-205 on the runway since it's a sample runway gown? TIA!!
sammer1938
@amyb15 17-205 was what is on the reciept and what the Berta sample store said so Im assuming thats correct. I wish I could find a photo of it on a model, would be much easier to sell! I dont do it justice. But its a beautiful gown.
earthtojocelyn
Is the under lining champagne colored?
earthtojocelyn
@sammer1938 is the dress only sheer, or does it have a champagne colored lining underneath?
