The Dress

Description from the designer: Personality and sensuality define this spectacular design with a mermaid crepe skirt and train edged in tulle and lace and a provocative bodice featuring transparencies and a V-neck. The back plays with a keyhole effect, giving this dress an extra dash of personality.

I'm sad to be parting with this gorgeous dress but hoping to find it a great home! The dress is light and airy and I found it to be extremely comfortable. It's elegant and has a stunning silhouette, but I was still able to easily sit, eat and dance. I was looking for a relatively simple dress with a little something extra to catch the eye, and this was perfect. It photographed beautifully. While it is considered a 'mermaid' style, I do not feel like it flares from the bottom.

Purchased in late 2022 for $1,920, alterations were $1,650, and professional dry cleaning was $180.
