Claire Pettibone : Kristene : For Sale – $1,750
UPDATE : THIS DRESS HAS SOLD
Hi Kiddos!
I don’t usually use my blog for this kind of stuff but I thought this would be a good way to reach more people that might be interested in this beautiful gown! If you read my blog regularly you know that I bought the dress of my dreams.… then decided it wasn’t exactly right on me and ended up wearing a different one! While I am not ready to part with the gorgeous Carolina Herrera I ended up floating down the aisle in I can safely let go of Miss Kristene. I was tempted to hack off the lower part and dye it into a cocktail number but I just couldn’t do it. It’s too beautiful to change.
It’s never been worn, except for a few times around my house- recently been tailored and needs cleaning and would fit 0-6. The price is a steal as the dress retails for over $4,000. I just want it off my hands and into someone who will love her!
If you are local I’d be happy to have you over to try it on …. obviously no returns and payment either cash or we can arrange a credit card payment for a small transaction fee. All pretty standard on that end!
Here are some pictures- let me know if she speaks to you

The back of the neck actually lays flat across your shoulders- no sag like in the photo below.
All of those little dot like lace pieces dangle and move when you walk.
The train lays about a foot and a half behind you and is sort of rounded to be shaped like a heart- goes back into a V shape to mimic the detailing on the lace that goes down your spine.
It’s just hanging in the closet all wrapped up waiting for a home!
ALSO! One of my brides, Siri is selling her vintage 1940s gown- check that auction out here.

Today I tried a Claire Pettibone dress and the dress was more beautiful than it seemed in pictures. I tried on the Orange Blossom in a size 8 (it was the only model in store) but it was a bit too large on me. I have been looking for Kristene. Do you still have the dress for sale?
