This dress was purchased brand new in July 2014 for my wedding in May 2015.
It has very small and subtle sequins throughout the dress that shimmers when light hits it. The chest is sweetheart cut and has small "butterfly-like" whispers that come above the fabric and lay on your chest. The lace on the bottom of the train is scalloped giving it great texture and making it beautiful for pictures. The dress is extremely comfortable, it doesn't fall down or ride up. I didn't have to adjust the dress at all throughout the entire wedding day and night. If you have any questions please feel free to email me.
I wore the dress as is for photos and the ceremony. After the cocktail hour, I added a belt for the reception which was perfect! Everyone loved the special touch for the party!
