Hello, I am searching for what I believe is a St. Patrick gown and I am hoping someone can help me. I found this dress recently at a bridal shop which had ripped the tags and had very poor service. I would like to find the dress elsewhere so I do not have to purchase it at this shop.
After some detective work, I suspect it is a St. Patrick gown, Style #1369. This dress is featured in the December/January 2001 issue of Brides magazine on page 377. The problem is this dress I tried on does not have the champagne accents that the featured dress in Brides has. Instead it was all ivory and the accents were beaded rather than what appears to be embroidery. I believe that this dress comes in just ivory without the champagne accents, but I am having a hard time finding a picture or finding the dress at a bridal shop in the Chicagoland area. It seems that this is a newer dress and information is limited. Any help or information would be appreciated!!
(The dress I tried on was an ivory, empire waisted, A-lined gown, made of organza and possibly and underlayer of tulle. The shop had the dress marked at $949, but they tend to mark up higher than most shops.)
