Fit & Construction
Visible boning gives the sheer bodice structure, while the lace-up closure allows the upper portion to be adjusted. The pointed waist connects to layers of ruffled tulle that create fullness without a rigid skirt shape. Detachable straps provide two neckline options, and the individual ruffle layers move separately as you walk.
