Why I Loved This Dress
The dress is incredibly flattering thanks to the drop basque drop waist. Such a beautiful silhouette! Luxury fabric, useful pockets and dramatic train. Truuuly classic, elegant and modern all at once.
The structured bodice gives a beautiful cinched waist while the drop basque waistline elongates the torso and creates an elegant hourglass shape. The Mikado fabric holds its shape beautifully without feeling heavy, creating a luxurious, clean and modern look.
The skirt has gorgeous volume without layers of tulle, making it perfect for brides wanting a classic, sophisticated aesthetic.
