This Oscar de la Renta dress is gorgeous and it is a definite statement piece. We believe this to be from the early 2000s and probably part of a bridal collection. It might even be a custom piece. His wedding pieces range from about $10000-$20,000 USD with the more elaborate ones like this tending to be in the upper range of that. Oscar launched his first bridal collection in October of 2002 and his wedding pieces have been worn by some of the most famous women in the world. He once said 'In the same manner that she fell in love with that man, I hope she's going to fall in love with that dress.' Countless brides have done just that. This gown is absolutely beautiful and if you are a bride looking for that very full princess feel and with the added pop of pink, this is the dress. 

The skirt of the dress is magnificent. Underneath the top layer are two layers of a pale smoky greyish white tulle and then that tops nine layers of pink tulle. Then under that are three more layers of a stiffen white tulle. Incredible! The dress is strapless to balance out the incredible volume that all of those layers create. The neckline is embroidered and finished with muted silver gold thread and tiny little pink beads, mixed with clear iridescent beads. This is all attached to the dress with pink thread. Inside the bodice there is a full built-in hidden corset that is boned and has underwire cups hidden under the pink silk lining. It nips in at the waist for shape and then the skirt explodes out in volume under that. I did not add any additional crinolines to the dress for these photos. The very top layer of tulle is covered with a scattering of tiny silver sequins and little clear beads that are fixed in patterns over the bodice as well as the skirt. This allows the dress to sparkle in the light from every angle it is seen from. The top layer of the skirt is gathered into the waist and on the sides it is gathered more so you get a bit of interest and draping of that top layer of tulle. The hem has been finished with an elaborate pattern that picks up on what you see on the bodice. On one side of the skirt the hem and tulle have been gathered up and into a pink bow for the perfect little finishing detail. If you needed the dress to feel even fuller you could have the inner layers starched and you would get even more volume. I love the bareness of the shoulders the strapless silhouette gives you. It is the perfect balance to that full princess skirt. Gorgeous. Excellent condition with a minor note below

The bodice is lightly boned with wired inner cups under the lining for structure and support. The dress closes at the side with a hidden set zipper. Multiple layers of built in tulle and skirting as described above. I do see some tiny breaks in the net and you will see the occasional missing bead or sequin or loose thread.
