The Dress

I purchased this dress from Kleinfeld in NYC, and it is absolutely stunning. It has both an illusion top and back - giving the illusion you're wearing a plunging v-neck strapless dress, while having the support of straps. The sheer illusion back with the buttons make it look like the buttons are floating on your back. Impeccable lace detail. This dress was gorgeous, yet I also was able to dance the night away in it. Due to the illusion top, I never was worried about a wardrobe malfunction. I received so many compliments on this dress and felt like a queen.

For reference, I am 5'4, wore 2.5 inch heels, and wear a size C-cup bra.

Please note: The dress itself is white, although it has a piece of nude sheer fabric underneath which gives it a more subtle tone vs bright white (there are a few layers underneath and other layers are white). The model images from the first 2 photos may not represent the exact coloring of the dress. Also there is a 1 inch minor rip at the bottom of the dress (train). Not noticeable with the lace, but took a photo for reference.
