The Dress

This dress truly is a beauty. It works for a formal event, or a smaller beach wedding for 40 guests which is what I did. I almost didn't get it because I was worried about the interior satin underlay being too hot, and one of my friends suggested I just cut it out. So this dress has a white jersey miniskirt underneath which made it much cooler (yay!) and let the light flow right through in our outdoor photos.. which I love and also made it a bit more "beachy." You can tell from the pics, it still had volume and movement, just less full. I was hesitant to part with it, but really want someone else to enjoy this dress like I did, the compliments on this dress still roll in. I was so comfortable all night, no bra or Spanx necessary.... a huge win! The back is really a beautiful feature in the dress as well. I wish you luck in finding your dress!

Alterations

dress was shortened. top altered to fit. I did add a bustle to it which I never used. Interior satin was all cut out and white jersey mini skirt (undetectable) was added to let the light flow through. I did wear flat sandals with the dress so keep in mind in determining height.
