This dress is amazing, and will make a statement on your day that is both elegant and memorable!
Please note that the Cape is attached, but this poses no problems when it comes to getting down to boogie on the dance floor, or bustling the cape. I am 5'6" and I wore modest 2" heels with this dress. I needed no alterations to the length. Further, no alterations were made to dress at all, the only change was that I put in a bustle.
Please feel free to make an offer on the dress, I am willing to work with you to reach a price that works for both of us!
Most importantly, all the best with your wedding plans!
