A super fun and modern dress, easy to wear, sit and dance in. It makes a stunning silhouette and manages to be incredibly comfortable at the same time.
This dress is 100% silk satin, in a classy matte finish. The belt is adjustable, and there are amazing pockets perfect for holding a handkerchief and other little items.
The dress has a short train, and it creates a very clean line in the back. It has a wrist tie to hold the back of the dress while walking. The design is especially good for an outdoor wedding. And bonus, no need to stress about bustling!
This dress has been tried on at the salon. I ended up wearing a different dress at my wedding, so this one has never been worn for an event. It was not dry cleaned, so you will want to dry clean before wearing.
It has one small spot on the back of the dress that would be removed with dry cleaning. You'll notice from the pictures that it is hidden in the folds of the dress and you have to look very hard to find it. The fifth picture shows the small spot in the bottom center of photo, the sixth picture shows the way the dress naturally hangs, and the spot is not visible. I would have worn this dress, but I unfortunately no longer fit in it and needed to purchase a new gown for my wedding. I was very dissapointed!!
The belt has a small pink mark on it. I have not tried to remove it, but it will likely come out with dry clearning, as well.
In picture #2 (me in the dress), I am wearing 4" heels. I am 5"7 and the dress comes off the ground 1.5" with those heels on. I am currently between a size 10-12. This dress is a size 10 and seems to be a fair "street" size 10, as well. I am not wearing a bra and am a 36 C.
Don't forget this dress has POCKETS! :)
