    Or if you can't model it, why don't you put a stock photo of it on your listing along with some close up of the detail you have taken?

    I'm going to try squeezing into it again to see if I'll be able to take a picture. I can't think of anyone who could model it for me, unfortunately :(
    I also can't find a stock photo anywhere on the internet.

    I included 2 close-up pictures of the faults in the listing (the two photos of the back of the dress).

    Anyway, thanks for all the advice everyone. I'm going to try to get some better pictures, and list it again without a reserve to see what happens. Maybe I should list it as a 'project'!

    Just don't do it up, yank the top up and clamp arms to your side for a front view! Thats the important one! :D I just thought the back shots were that, sorry didn't realise you were showing the faults (may mean other people didn't either)
    Good luck!
    :rotfl:Ahahah got my signature removed for claiming MSE thought it was too boring :rotfl:

    I've taken some photos with the dress on (but not done up at the back) - why didn't I think of that before! I've now got a good pic of the front view and 1 of me holding the train. I took the photos myself though, in the mirror, so the camera is in front of my face. Probably a minor detail but should I leave the camera in the photo? Was thinking of cutting my head off (ouch!) but will this look freaky and put people off?

    Most people cut off their heads (that sounds odd :p) camera in is fine!

    You may even want to take pictures of the internal lace up corset. Some ladies have no idea what or how that works!
    It all adds to the selling point. Something unique!
    Fabulous dress btw.

    I'm reluctant to use someone's wedding photo without their permission. One of those dresses on sellmyweddingdress is the actual one I've got though!
