Fit, Comfort & Movement
Stretch knit follows the figure through the bodice and hips before opening into a fluid fit-and-flare skirt. Curved, radiating lines of beading and stone accents sweep across the plunging V-neckline and draw attention toward the pointed basque waist. Sheer side cutouts create an illusion effect that emphasizes the waist, while the thigh-high slit provides additional room for walking and dancing. The dramatic open back features adjustable shoulder and back straps to help personalize the fit.
The Dimitra Designs Experience
The plunging neckline, sheer side cutouts and open back make this gown one to try on to evaluate the bodice fit, strap placement and overall proportions. At Dimitra Designs in Greenville, SC, our master seamstresses with 40+ years of alterations expertise can assess the embellished stretch knit and open-back construction before explaining which adjustments may be possible. Alterations are separate and optional. Some of our prom shoppers make the trip from Anderson.
Online you see each designer’s prom collection. Our Greenville, SC store has 1,000+ prom and pageant dresses to try on, most in one size and one color, and the selection changes as dresses sell. Ask a Dimitra Designs stylist or call 864-467-0801 before your visit.
