2009 Vera Wang 'Helena' Chantilly Lace & Tulle 'Distressed' Wedding Gown

• Highly valuable 2009 Vera Wang 'Helena' gown, originally $20,000
• Dramatic silhouette with strapless bustier bodice and voluminous ball gown skirt
• Buttercream shade
• Couture construction with boning and multi-layer, multi-textural skirt
• Silk satin lining
• Shell consists of tulle, Chantilly lace and netting
• Slight drop waist with tulle rosette 'belt' that ties around the waist
• Belt is attached but could easily be untacked and worn as a choker or other accessory
• This dress is a beautiful example of Wang's 2000s designs where she diverted from her minimal duchess satin to these creative and chaotic textural gowns. The skirt is a complicated 'messy' tangle of lace and tulle which feels pretty but punk
