About the Dress

This simple, romantic, and totally feminine dress is a must for curvy women. The sweetheart neckline with the fit and flare style accentuated my curves perfectly, which was very flattering. It's a perfect dress for feeling beautiful and sexy all day long. Between the boning and added cups, having to pull up my dress was not an issue at all, which is a concern for strapless dresses. It fit perfectly and was super comfortable, even for an outdoor wedding. The dress has this beautiful embroidery lace detail, with an Illusions scoop back with lace and crystal buttons as well as along the bottom of the train. The American bustle added to the dress easily pulls the train up and out of the way for walking around and dancing (as seen in picture #2) or you can wear it down and flowing for beautiful pictures (as seen in picture #1 & #4.

This dress was worn at an outdoor venue. Although it has been dry-cleaned, there is one small, very light, speckled dirt stain at the bottom of the dress, toward the back, just before the train starts. It is not easily seen. Other that that, the dress looks new still.
