Description: JANE YEH WEDDING DRESS – STYLE ‘ALEX’ SIZE 10
This absolutely gorgeous gown is a Jane Yeh creation. RRP $2950.00. Purchased from Brides on Thorndon in Wellington and only worn once. It has been professionally dry cleaned and is in excellent condition. It is a size 10 dress and has had NO alterations made to the sizing. The only alteration made was to the hem. The shoes worn on the day were purchased from Mi Piaci so had an enormous 10cm heel and I am 170cm tall. There is therefore plenty of hem still to work with.
I thoroughly enjoyed wearing this beautiful gown on my wedding day and felt like a princess. I suggest that the best option for anyone interested in this gown would be to try it on at Brides on Thorndon ( or appropriate Bridal Shop in the city you live ) to see if the Size 10 fits. As I mentioned previously, there were NO alterations made to the sizing so if that size fits you then you would know immediately if this were the gown for you.
Description: Just had my wedding and love love loved my dress. im a size 8-10. had lots of comments about my dress, i paid near $6000 for it to be made by the amazing anna schimmel.
Elegant, sophisticated gown featuring gorgeous floaty chiffon and beautiful beaded detail. the long slim line bodice hugs your figure and is beautifully drapped with smooth silk to create visual impact. sheer straps lead from a wide v - neck embellished with exclusive beaded lace, continuing down the bodice to accentuate your curves. the fleared skirt flows in layers of fine silk shiffon to create movement and gives you a dramatic, hourglass silhouette.
please feel free to try on. my mum stood on the hem and it has ripped slightly at one point near the hem but otherwise no major damage. Because rip near hem should be easy to fix.

Description:
I wore this strapless dress for our beach garden wedding last summer. It was stunning and suited the setting and the warm weather!
The dress has beautiful beaded detail on the bodice and pleats through the waistline which accentuate the bust line. The beading continues down the length which helps provide a little 'height' if you're shorter like I am (5 ft 1). I have also included the picture of the dress in colour (it is actually Ivory) to show the detail of the beading.
The dress also lacing/corset at the back. This made it easy to get in and out of and added an extra level of special detail.
I found this style particularly flattering as I had just had a baby (4 mths previously) and it helped hide baby bumps etc. I truly felt like a princess for a day!
The dress has been professionally dry cleaned and is in good condition. If you're Wellington based I can also recommend a good dress maker for alterations.
This is a brand new genuine Anjolique gown and is a stunning style with a V neckline made of tulle with beautiful lace detail and fastens with a zipper closure and features a chapel length train. For sale well below retail, so is a great opportunity to purchase brand new at a realistic price.
All our gowns are guaranteed to be authentic and come with relevant paperwork and a breathable garment bag. Your inspection is welcomed at our Whakatane showroom.

Description: A spontanuous decison lead me to buy this beautiful, unique, grecian style wedding dress from Jane Yehs store in Parnell, Auckland.
Sadly, upon reflection and trying it on again, I can say that it just doesnt feel right for me...
I fell in love with the back and the 'floatiness' feel of it but it just isn't me and it doesn't fit me quite right in the bust.
I have the reciept ($1500) and included is the dress bag, a chiffon shawl and the material clasp for attaching the back together. The chiffon shawl could be used if you wanted to create a big bow instead of the clasp..We tried this in the shop and it looked cool! We also tried a floor length veil with it and it looked stunning!
I also have the number of 2 AWESOME dressmakers who will cater to your needs should you need to adjust anything.
I am 173cm, and in heels of about 2cm, the bottom of the dress just sits off the ground.
Size 10
NEVER been worn - only to try on.
You can view if need be, just message me.
This wedding dress is Fiorenza, silk white in NZ size 8. It looked and felt amazing on my wedding day, the bodice is very flattering with structure and boning inside, it enhances your waist to give you a beautiful shape. The bodice has a woven texture, with the material crossing over itself, which gives such nice detail without being too much, and you can see this clearer in the photos.
The belt which I have included is by Annasul Y which is beautifully handcrafted with swarovski Crystals and beading. The belt was additional and although included in the price, you can easily change belts, even throughout the night for a different look should you wish.
The skirt is full and light with five layers, although not puffy. It was very light and comfortable to wear. There are beautiful covered buttons down the back, and the skirt hooks up in 3 different places for dancing later, to give a balanced and full look when hooked up. My wedding is the only one I have been to where the brides dress was not any hassle once dancing started.
The veil is also included as it is the perfect match in colour. I chose a veil that was relatively simple and one long length, as the dress has quite a bit of detail around the waist area.
I truly felt like a real life princess in this dress and would love someone else to enjoy it as much as I did. It is so comfortable and flattering that you can feel like you can drink and eat as much as you like on the day without being self concious. This dress is great for all types of weddings, it is full enough for a church wedding, and also light and comfortable enough for a garden/outdoor wedding. It also comes with the proper dress bag. It does not have a mark on it, only worn once and looks brand new. I have all the tags and extra buttons for it still. I am a NZ size 8, but the dress style is so easily altered could fit a 6 right through to a 10.
I am happy to email through more photos should you wish, as I have plenty.

Description: This is a beautiful UNWORN dress which I purchased 2 years ago but didnt land up using. The dress has chiffon overlay and gathers in a flattering rouch on the side. It has shoe string straps which can be used attached and a sweet heart neckline. The back is adjustable which makes the size more of a 10 - 14 capability.
I purchased the dress for $1500 from Brides Corner in Manukau.
I am 5'8 (173) so it has ample length for most ladies.
Description: I have a STUNNING Sottero and Midgley wedding dress for sale.
I bought the dress directly from a retailer in the States and it didn't arrive until the week before my wedding so I couldn't wear it.
It's strapless, champagne Dupion silk, corset back and slim A-line - so kind of fishtails a little - with a small train.
The dress is a US size 8 - so a NZ 10-12 (I am size 10 on the top and 12 on the bottom). All of the tags are still on it.
The pictures don't do it justice at all. If you are interested, please get in contact and come try it on. It is such a beautiful dress - would be lovely for someone to have it to wear on their special day.
Retails in NZ for $2795. Price is negotiable.

Size: 8-10
Description: Stunning Stapless White wedding dress size 8-10. Has a zip at the back and buttons there are for show. Has two different ways of holding up for dancing later. One tie underneath and a wrist loop.
I have the most amazing day of my life in this dress and I am hoping someone else can do the same. I purchased it at Calla Bridal Botany and also had it dry cleaned by them just after my wedding. It is a US 6. However I am a 8-10 in NZ sizes so it will fit if you are in this size range. Also I have spoken to the ladies at Calla bridal and it can be adjusted by them at your cost.
It retails for $2,200 and the veil was $100.

Description:
This is an Emily Percy one-off designed dress, please visit her website for an idea of the quality of her work.
Created from white Duchesse Satin made from 100% silk (Paid $90 per metre, so top quality) this dress is designed to create an hour glass figure for girls who are not blessed with too many curves. It has built in bra cups and features pleated detailing on the straps and a sash which buttons on at the back of the dress.
The dresses main feature is the beautiful low back and it is shaped well to create a flattering butt!
The bridesmaid dresses featured are also for sale. I am happy for people to view the dress and can send you loads more photos if you wish.
(The dress should be long enough for most girls as I am 172 cm)

Back is lace up.

Description: An ivory Venus dress, style VN6631. Can be found on the Venus website. It is described as informal as has no train and is reasonably simple. The fabric is Royal Taffeta. It has a modified V neck which graduates toward spaghetti strap back. Entire bodice shows asymetric ruching with side pleating. The back laces up, this makes it fit perfectly even without alteration. I added fake flowers but these can be removed. Length suits 173 cm with 4 cm heels but could easily be taken up. Comes with 46 cm by 216 cm shawl of same material.
Description: Beautiful Anna Schimmel double sided silk with soft overlay, detailed bodice, perfectly fitted with small train. Very light and comfortable.

Fitting bodice with three quarter length sleeves and just-on-the-shoulder silk rosebud trimmed neckline. Rosebuds repeated again around lifted hemline. Boofy bow at close of low, zipped square back. Although the dress is professionally made and finished, its construction is simple underneath for easy alteration. It looks as great as the day it was worn and has been wedding-dress dry-cleaned. I loved wearing it and left it on throughout the reception without bother.

Description: Beautiful beaded strapless wedding dress by Ellen - H. Bought for $1,000.00 in Modes, New Market a few years ago.
Description: I bought this dress from Sophie Voon for my wedding in Feb 2007, it has been dry cleaned and well stored since then.
The dress is somewhere between a size 10 and 12 and was made to measure for me. The winter white fabric is beautifully gathered at the top and a white ribbon ties under the bust. The skirt floats down from the ribbon and finishes with the exquisite flower detail which comes up to mid thigh. The length is slightly longer at the back so has a very slight train effect.
Measurements:
81.5cm - the top of the dress
84cm - around the bust
73cm - around the waist
142cm - length bust to floor
145cm - length under arm to floor
150cm - middle back to floor

Description: This is a gorgeous dress with lace and bead detailing, it is brand new as I bought it but ended up finding the style I originally wanted. This dress will look amazing on
Description: If you want to feel like a princess on your wedding day this dress will do it.
Designed by Rowan McLennan it is made of off white Thai silk with Red detail in Thai Silk as well. With a sweetheart neckline and rouched bodice with a low waist and opening into a full length A-line skirt this dress is incredibly flattering. The red detail wraps around the top of the sweetheart bodice down the top of the thighs where it wraps around asymmetrically.
The dress has an inbuilt Jane Yeh bra (is a 12D but was taken in so is also a size 10).
Made for a size ten with a bust and for approx 175cm height.
I paid just over $3000 for this dress and had it professionally dry cleaned afterwards which cost over $300. There are a few small marks on the inside of the hem at the bottom of the dress where I walked in the grass all day. Its currently stored in a special box with acid free paper( hence the wedding photos, am too scared to take it out and put it on again for more photos!)
If, like me, you are looking for a dress that has some colour in it and are annoyed that the ones that do have colour all seem to have high waists, this is the dress for you. I would love for someone else to feel as special in this dress as I did. It is too gorgeous to be hidden away in a box in the hopes that I one day have a daughter who might want to wear it on her wedding day!

Description: Jane Yeh – STUNNING Wedding Dress
I bought this beautiful dress off Trademe and now decided to sell and give someone else the chance to feel as gorgeous in it as I did!
It looks to be a mixture of the Angelina and Greta designs with chiffon over what I think is satin. The chiffon is rouched from the bust down to the top of the thighs, the fabric then drops out from underneath with layers of chiffon which makes the dress sit and photograph perfectly. The rouching has Swarovski crystals sewn in. The bottom of the dress falls away in a sort of fishtail and is able to be tied up at the back and also has a small loop on the end so it can be held up.
I have had the dress drycleaned, there is slight yellowing under the armpits but this isn’t noticeable. Comes with a dress bag and hanger.
Please contact me through the questions if you want to try the dress on, I am located in Cambridge.
