A wonderful froth of a dress, and not super tiny, as so many of these are! The strapless bodice is boned, and features a true shelf bust - the inner layer uses horizontally ruched net over the boning, and the outer layer sits a little below the net in an enticing way, enhanced by dozens of prongset rhinestones. The full net skirt adds a cascading swag of net at the right side of the waist. The dress also has a matching piece of net that can be worn as a stole. I used a modest midi-length crinoline for photos - it is not included with purchase.

SIZE: No size label. When it comes to boned strapless dresses like this, the most important measurement is the waist - if that stays in place, the bodice will also stay in place.

FABRIC/COLORS: Iridescent taffeta, in a soft shade of lilac pink. The nylon net used for the shelf bust and the overskirt is a more vibrant shade of lilac. 

TAGS: No tags at all. 

CLOSURES: A metal zipper down the sideseam.

CONDITION: There is subtle grayish discoloration to the lower bodice along the right sideseam just above the waist - see closeup. It may have something to do with the metal used for the prongset rhinestones, as they have left similar marks inside the bodice - see closeup, not seen when worn. I found two tears in the net skirt, one at the hem, and the other a three-point tear a little below the swag on the right upper skirt. I have hand stitched them back in place see before and afters. It is possible that I missed a smaller one or two - it is a lot of skirt!
