  • More Info

    Selling my authentic Rachel Gilbert “Amabel” wedding gown. This dress features the designer’s signature intricate hand-beading, long sleeves, and a flattering column/trumpet silhouette. It has a boat neck, v back, and is floor length with an invisible zip at the back of the gown.

    Despite the heavy beadwork, it is not heavy and incredibly comfortable to wear. It has a subtle stretch that allows you to sit, walk, and dance with ease.

    Sizing & Professional Alterations:

    Original Designer Label Size: UK 14 (Rachel Gilbert Designer Size 4)

    Current Fit: Professionally tailored down to fit a standard UK 8-10 (Rachel Gilbert Designer Size 2).

    Alteration Details: The gown was meticulously taken in through the bust, waist, and hips by a specialist bridal seamstress to ensure the beaded pattern remains perfectly seamless.

    Length: Hemmed to fit a height of 5″2 / 156 cm wearing 4″ / 10 cm heels.

    Exact Flat-Lay Measurements (Unstretched):

    Bust: 33″ / 84 cm
    Waist: 26″ / 66 cm
    Hips: 33″ / 84 cm

    To give you an idea of the fit, my measurements at the time were:

    Bust 35″ / 89cm
    Waist 28.5″ / 72cm
    Hips 34″ / 86cm

    Bought second-hand in Covet, Dublin, in 2025. Status: Excellent, worn for a few hours.

    Cleaning: Professionally dry-cleaned immediately after the wedding by Cleaning Angel in Dublin who specialise in wedding dress cleaning. The cost was €145. It has been stored in a breathable garment bag.

    It has very minor flaws in some loose beading but because of the style it’s completely unnoticeable when worn and is in otherwise excellent condition. See the inside label: “Loss of sequins or beads is a normal occurrence and should not be considered a fault.”

    Please feel free to reach out with any questions or if you would like to see more close-up photos of the beadwork or fit!

    I’m based in Dublin and would be happy to accommodate trying this on before purchasing 😊
