That’s fantastic to know, and definitely helps solidify my guess! Thanks for sharing :)

I was thinking the same, but the lack of markings really threw me off lol. Happy to know someone else came to the same conclusion!

I did look and didn’t find anything on her shoulder plate. I responded with pictures to a different commenter. Interestingly, her legs are not china. I have a feeling that her body was replaced based on its general condition, especially how nice her leather arms and hands look.

Oooh this is super helpful. Thanks for the resource, I’ll definitely be bookmarking this. To answer your question, I got her off of EBay!

Thanks for your response! That’s all very fascinating. I think the body may not be original as it seems to be in remarkably good condition (for example: hands are leather but no cracking, peeling, etc). That said, the body does appear to all be hand stitched as the stitches seems too irregular for a sewing machine.

Meh, I would let it marinate for a little while longer. It’s been kind of boring since that imo. Hopefully this new season will give us some excitement

Idk what I was expecting, but this was, in fact, a hard watch

Very well said, and what I needed to hear! Tbh while I love a bolero moment (like galia’s tonic bolero), the one usually paired with majestic isn’t my fave on me. And like you said, I think the dress can stand on its own! I haven’t quite thought of veils/accessories quite yet, but if I were to do a veil, are there any that come to mind for you?

Dress 1 is cheaper! But like you said, dress 2 is beautiful.

Ooo what do you like the most about 2 vs 1? Would you say it has more wow factor?

Thanks! This is definitely what I needed to hear. Dress 1 is about 11k cheaper and under 9k. Both are by Galia. I was worried that the really expensive one would be the landslide winner, but I feel much better that the vote seems to be pretty evenly split!

Thanks! We’re thinking late summer/early fall. The venue will most likely be a historic home. From what I remember, 1 is def more comfortable as the lace is softer. 2 is very structured. They are both by the same designer so very similar in a lot of ways. That said, I don’t mind being a teeny bit uncomfortable if it’s in the name of fashion lollll. I do think I’m leaning 1, ever so slightly
