After my wedding in 1982, my mother paid to have my dress professionally cleaned and preserved. Neither of my daughters were interested in it, but recently--nearly 42 years after my wedding--the daughter of a dear friend wanted to use my dress. We opened up the "vault" and the dress looked perfect! But it didn't fit her. Now that it's "out of the vault" I'd like to sell it. The dress is ivory, with lovely lacework and beading. It has a chapel train which buttons up for dancing--or shooting pool, which I did hours after the wedding and I'd let my hair down! I don't know the size, but I was 5"7" and weighed 140lbs., so I'm guessing maybe a 28" waist, 36" bust. Of course it will need professional pressing, and perhaps some alterations, but it's in near perfect condition, and I'd love for another bride to enjoy wearing it as much as I did.

@susanweiss308 When the dress is laying flat, the measurements going across the bust, waist, and hips

I hope I did this right! from side Seam to side Seam I get a bust of 18.5, so x2 would be 37"? doing the same for the waist I get 14.5", so x2 would be 29". hip is trickier, as the dress is flowy not fitted before the waist. I think around 40-42" in the hip.

@electricarrot sorry didn't answer you directly, still getting used to the site. I measured side to side, 18.5"across the bust, so 36-37". I measured 14.5 side to side in the waist, so 28-29". hip is trickier as the dress is flowy not fitted below the waist. I estimate 40-42" hip.
