Fit, Comfort & Movement
The embroidered mesh follows the figure through the bodice and hips before opening into a flowing fit-and-flare skirt. Beading and sequins add dimension and sparkle throughout the gown, while the sweetheart neckline and basque waist create a defined shape. Adjustable shoulder straps help personalize the fit, and the lace-up back provides flexibility through the bodice. A thigh-high slit allows additional room for walking and dancing.
