'Stunning Lace Gown' that's never been worn..what to do with it?

I purchased a lace wedding gown but due to a change in circumstances am no longer in need. (The wedding has been postponed). It had only been worn during the initial appointment at time of purchase and has been kept in a protective garment bag since.
Unfortunately I am unable to return the dress to receive a refund so am keen to try and sell it to recover some of the money, I will be very sad to see it go but it seems such a shame to let it go to waste.
It is a beautiful ivory full lace gown with a stunning and dramatic train. It features a sweetheart neckline and subtle embellishment to the neckline and to the right hand side of the waist where the lace gathers. This feature is extremely slimming and flattering and is more suited to a bride who would prefer something more subtle and delicate.
The back of the dress is my favourite part and features a lace up corset with subtle embellishment. The train is dramatic and flowing and the intricacy of the lace gives the impression of elegance.
It is a size 10 and is extremely figure flattering and has had no adjustments made.
It still has its original protective garment bag that I happy to sell along with the dress.
I have listed it on eBay, Preloved & Undress but wonder if anyone has any further ideas?
The original price of the dress was £1195 however I am prepared to accept a realistic and reasonable price to achieve a faster sale.

You'll need to remove the advert link at the bottom of your post because advertisements are not allowed on MSE.
Other online selling sites you could try are hitched classifieds, weddingbee classifieds, sell my wedding dress, gumtree and local facebook selling sites. I think confetti and UK bride may also have classified sections but not certain on that.0 -
Not a clue why my post was deleted. Sweetheart necklines aren't slimming. Go sell your dress on a site which is for selling wedding dresses.0
