If you want a ballgown on your wedding day, this is the dress for you! I wore this beautiful Mori Lee 5401 ballgown for only three hours on my wedding day (photo shoot, ceremony, first dance), before switching to a different dress for the reception and afterwards. This is as "like-new" as you'll get. The material is very light and airy. No bustling was done. There is a small tear on one of the inner ruffles (because I'm clumsy and stepped on it), but it is one of a like a hundred ruffles and you can't see it in any pictures.
I'm 5'5" and wore 2.5" heels. I bought this from Global Bridal Gallery in Alexandria, VA in 2017. It was custom-ordered from the manufacturer. During my dress search, I also tried on a preowned dress from this website, and would have bought it if it was a better fit. I'm a big fan of this site and hope that my dress finds a new home!
I prefer selling it to a local DC bride. Feel free to come by and try it on.
