Official description: Ethereal frothy ballgown in floral hand printed silk organze with velvet ribbon detailed corset bodice. Has detachable fortuny pleaster organze petal sleeves.
My comments: This is THE UNIQUE DRESS of the year! So romantic, feminine and ethereal - truly a gem and something to wear if you really stand out as a unique bride and have pictures to remember forever. The bodice is sheer, however I wore nipple covers that matched my skintone and it was perfect. I am 5 ft 9 inches and wore 3 inch heels - no need to alter the length for me. I had the waist taken in by .5 inches. The sleeves are in excellent condition, and the dress is in very good condition after wearing it for only 7 hours and having it professionaly dry cleaned. There are dirt marks and stains along the hem, and minor tears on the seam of the hem, but note that it's such a long, frothy and voluminous dress that these small imperfections would go largely unnoticed. A professional seamstress could likely fix these imperfections as well. Please also note that I cut off the hanger straps since the bodice is sheer and they showed through!
