You want to feel like a princess? Because this is how you feel like a princess! :D
This was a strapless, sweetheart neckline A-line dress with ivory lace appliques and small, clear sequins overlaid on what they called a 'Moscato'-colored layer. I had sleeves added on for visual interest (man am I proud of that choice). It zips up the back but there are buttons for show. The bodice is heavily laden with lace; lace is delicately sprinkled throughout the trunk and train, and the hem is trimmed in it to end with a bang.
The primary zipper-handle thing broke but there is a secondary zipper handle that we used to zip up all the way and it worked just fine.
The dress bustles with the help of a reinforced button on the back. There is a small loop in the train that fits over a marked button so it is an easy bustle. My dancing picture shows the dress when bustled.
If you have any questions, please do ask and I'll do my best to answer them.
