The Dress

Romantic mermaid dress with a draped v-neckline and an accentuated trumpet-shaped skirt with a rouched back detail. The dress is made from delicately embroidered lace with 3D flowers in light shades of blush and ivory.
This dress is everything!!! The 3D lace is exquisite and so unique. Also, this dress so comfortable!! The fabric has a decent amount of stretch to it, so it hugs nicely but still gives freedom to move about easily. The deep V neckline is super flattering, and it hugs in all the right places with flare at the knee for an extra feminine silhouette. The layers of tulle and lace are breathtaking up close and from far away, especially when the light shines through you can really appreciate the layers and detail, and it creates the most beautiful glow in the sunlight. The V neckline has a very, very sheer lace inset, so everything stays perfectly in place.
Alterations - hemmed to height of 5'10'' (with shoes). Added bustle with 3 attachment points across the back. Bows at shoulder are very lightly sewn in to keep them in place, but stitching can easily be removed as well (I loved the bow detail and wanted to keep it perfectly in place all night! But you can also remove the bows from the arms completely if you prefer).
This dress is retail $6,900+shipping/sales tax. Alterations cost $1,000 (hem length and add bustle). Alterations are not included in resell price, but just provided as FYI (savings to you!). I splurged on this dress - and I am so glad I did... You will not regret this purchase, trust me!

Alterations

Hem at bottom, addition of 3-point bustle in back, light stitching to keep bows in place at shoulders (easily removeable if not wanted).
