This dress is amazing!! The lace is absolutely beautiful - the photos cannot possibly do it justice. It's also super lightweight and comfortable. It was decided that this dress wasn't a good fit for the venue/style we're aiming for, so I very (very, very, very) sadly am letting it go in the hopes that someone will be lucky enough to enjoy it :) It was a sample that I purchased and have not worn, with the exception of initially trying it on and then putting it on again once to take these photos. The lace overlay and the slip layer underneath are two separate pieces. The white underneath slip has spaghetti straps, which I was planning to tuck / sew into my (strapless) bra, as you can see me testing out in the photos. There's one button missing in the back, which would be very easy to fix either by 1) finding a matching button, 2) moving the top button down and putting a fancier button in the top position, or 3) replacing all the buttons. I have also had this dress professionally dry-cleaned. If you have any questions at all, please let me know!
