Fit & Construction
The lace corset provides structure through the bodice, while the lace-up closure allows adjustment at the back. Stretch crepe gives the skirt some flexibility as it follows the fitted shape and opens toward the hem. Ruching adds texture through the skirt, and the slit provides room for walking.
The Dimitra Designs Experience
Fit starts with the dress's construction. We welcome prom shoppers from Greenwood every season. At Dimitra Designs in Greenville, SC, our master seamstresses with 40+ years of alterations expertise evaluate how the lace bodice and crepe skirt are made before recommending changes. Alterations are separate and optional, with each dress assessed individually.
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.
