This dress lives up to its name- it is truly BREATHTAKING! It has a classic sillouhette with a fashion forward flare- super flattering corset and skirt is layers of tulle with intricate, delicate laser cut detail. Zooey Deschanel wore it in baby blue to the Emmy's and looked stunning. It was worn for 4 hours (I did a casual dress change for cake cutting) then professionally preserved the day after the wedding and has been untouched in its preservation box since.
I loved this dress.
It's super comfortable b/c it's a fitted bodice that zips up in the back. The skirt just flows. So once the top is adjusted there is nothing to worry about- no bra, no slippage! It was a revelation for me bc I can never comfortably go strapless otherwise.
It is a true gown but since the skirt is light and delicate I felt like I was floating, not weighed down by fabric.
It's a simple step in and out dress- so one fasten at the bra and back zip and that's it. No buttons :)
