The Dress

A beautiful classic, minimalist dress with a high neck and low back designed and made by Montreal, Canada designer Arti Gogna. It is a mermaid shape skirt with a small train, with a small invisible zipper in the center back. The designer's sizing labels this a "Small", so it is standard street sizing. (I typically wear a size 4 dress size.) The dress is a thicker material and has a lining to help conceal undergarments, but I advise wearing an adhesive or other type of bra made for a backless dress.

It was worn once for our destination wedding, so there is some very faint staining on the edges of the bottom hem of the train. There is also one small faint stain near the neck. The dress has been thoroughly cleaned and the stains are not visible when worn.

Alterations

The dress has been hemmed and the straps have been shortened to correct gaping in the open back. The dress was originally 60 inches in length in the front, 74 inches in the train but with hemming and wearing heels I am estimating the new length is somewhere close to 50 inches from neck to hem in the front. (I am 5"4 and wore 3.5" heels.)
