Traditional and Romantic Ballgown
Princess style with layered bottom and a faux gathered wrap at the left waist side. It is a ball gown silhouette with a three-layered skirt and a medium-length train. The bodice has boning, is form-fitting, and features discreet beading and pearls. The layering of the dress skirt is multidimensional and meant to look like a flower. There are pleats that gather at the left part of the waist and play into the flower style.
What I loved about the dress: Even though it looks intricate and elaborate as a style, it was extremely comfortable to wear in hot weather (I had a Caribbean wedding), I could easily move, dance and take pictures (including on the beach), on the grass, etc. It also looked great in pictures and made me look much thinner and taller than I actually was.
My dress is size 10 UK size (USA 4-6, European 38). I did not have it altered as it fit great.
The dress has been professionally cleaned and is spotless as well as in perfect condition integrity-wise, with no tears or rips anywhere. The beading is also intact.
