The Dress

Unfortunately, this dress was never worn. It's new in the bag and pictures don't do it justice. It's a GORGEOUS dress. It's a size 22, but it fits more like a 16/18. The pictures of my daughter don't include the ivory lining that we purchased. The description according to the manufacturer is as follows:

Modern, formal and fun all at once, meet Style D3157 from Essense of Australia! Beaded straps and a classic V-neckline pair with the highly detailed layering of the lace bodice for a distinctly feminine feel throughout. Meanwhile, encrusted sparkle elements enhance the neckline with added shite. Glitter and sequin tulle layers also add a glossy effect to this otherwise soft and romantic silhouette, creating the perfect harmony between classic bridal beauty and red-carpet glamour. A lengthy train defines your entrance (and exit) with a gorgeous bridal statement, as the delicate organic appliques seem to pop against the tulle layer for a touch of modern negative space
