I am really downsizing the attic and have quite a few dressy dresses that I was going to have a second fashion show with. All these dresses are dressy and in excellent condition. They can either be worn or the material can be used. I have small to large--one that is perfect for any young gal going to a fall prom....that is small and is of dark blue or black velvet off shoulders with some white trim. Its by Bianchi...size4 *
If anyone is interested in knowing more...please let me know and I will get back.
1. gold and white strapless brocade dress..A Helena Barbieri original---no size listed---but beautiful material...looks small to medium *
2. light orange dress with jeweled collar and front ..medium
3.blue sequined top made in India---Large
4.black with silver threading through it dress long sleeved--looks medium Monet of Chestnut Hill,
5.lack long sleeved top with big beautiful white skirt.size 11/12 with belt Pantagis has netted slip to make the skirt full. Elegant *
6. sea foam green David's Bridal strapless bridesmaid dress size 18 *
7. pink laced top pink bottom 13/14 dress.
Anyone interested in any of these for wearing or the material...let me know. I will do my best to get a picture and e-mail it privately to you---I have photobucket---but its way over my head.
Thats it---let me know......
* these things are Really Really nice

They sound lovely. Unfortunately I don't have a need right now. Thanks for thinking of us though.

You are so funny Dutchy---you know I think those dresses were made for you, really. I only wish I had sent them early enough for that wedding. oh well.
How big is your village?

Thanks for your offer Beverly, however, I don't see any sizes that would fit. I don't know the colors of the wedding yet, even though it is real soon! I am dieting like mad....

I guess the material on that gold Helena Barbieri is gold lame instead of brocade.....not sure what the difference is.
