Vintage Y2K, this beautiful dress was my prom dress when I graduated high school in 2000. I also wore it to a handful of weddings and similar formal events. It’s absolutely stunning, hugging you in all the rights places. It’s a lovely shade of lilac purple with hand applied floral-shaped sequins throughout the bodice.
There’s no tags but I purchased it in 2000 from a boutique in Yorkville, Toronto called San Remo. It carried mostly European, and specifically, French designers.
From my measurements it’s best suited for a size 2.
Approx measurements laid flat:
58.5” length from shoulder to hem
16.5” pit to pit
13” waist (with stretch to the fabric up to 15”)
It’s lined with a full length slip, likely made of polyester. The fabric of the dress itself is a gauzy fabric, perhaps polyester too. It is darted at the bust (so there’s space for your girls) with a scoop neckline and spaghetti straps. I had a professional seamstress sew in tabs in the interior armpit area to hook into a strapless bra, so it doesn’t show.
In excellent used condition. No tears or rips, but two small stains that you reaaallly need to look for. See last two pics. The first stain shown is also on the slip. Both stains may come out with a dry clean.

Do you have a photo of what it looks like on? Does it have stretch?

@carleighbodrug hi! Thanks for your interest. Yes, the dress does have stretch. If you note my measurements of the dress, I mention the fabric stretch there. I don’t have a pic of the dress on hand, but I will look for one. Stay tuned.

Is this like a size small? I usually wear size 6 in dresses so I'm assuming I can't fit in it.

@timmyrahman hi! At the time of purchasing it, I would have been roughly a size 2, so it’s closer to an XS, though as I note in the listing, the dress has stretch to the fabric, and can accommodate a waist up to 15”. The bust is darted as well, providing more space for your breasts too. If there’s other measurements you’d like, please let me know. It’s hard to say how exactly and if it would fit you without knowing your body type.

@_elasticmind_ to be frank I'm usually a medium/size 6 in dresses with a 36/38 bust and a 28-30 inch waist. I have a pear shaped body so I'm assuming it's most likely not going to fit me. However, thank you for answering my question was very helpful.
