The Dress

Worn once in September, 2019 and just dry cleaned: it looks and feels brand new. 

After looking at hundreds and hundreds of dresses, I stumbled upon Grace Loves Lace and immediately fell in love withe Hart.  Unique yet timeless, classy yet with a sexy and edgy modern look, it was absolutely perfect- and looks great on a small frame!  The Hart is a dream to wear- I felt like I was twisting and turning in a Lululemon stretch lace fabric all night.  I cannnot say anough about the jaw-dropping and effortless Hart.  I hope someone will love her as much as I did! :) :)   I found it a bit tricky to perfectly match the stats with the dimensions of the dress, so please make sure it is the right fit for you!  Below is the officially GLL description!
