A stunning strapless dress in 100% silk with beautiful lace detailing.This Pronovias Ipanema ivory wedding dress is in a size 6 but fits like a u.s. street size 4. The dress is corsetted, giving structure and a stunning shape. The bodice is covered in lace and tiny beads and has a beautifully scalloped lace- edge, which is very flattering. The length is designed for 5ft 7 inches. I am 5'5' and i wore 2" heels on my wedding day. The tail of the dress is made into a French bustle with coordinating color strings. Two pads were sewn into the bust area for shape and no bra wear. It is a mermaid dress. One of the guests had stepped on the tail of the dress which slightly pulled apart the tail from the bodice; no actual damage was done and the tail was quickly hand sewn onto the bodice. It is not obvious unless you examine the dress up close. There is no visible soiling to the hem of the dress.
