Why We Love Her:
This stunning trumpet-style gown 40160 is styled with a delicate floral beaded motif. Sheer cap sleeves frame the V-neckline and V-back. Not to mention, the subtle beaded natural waistline gives way to the slim godet skirt. From any angle, this dress is stylish, flattering, and youthful.
What Makes Her Special:
Additionally, this piece gets high marks for its fitted elegance, comfort and feminine detailing. The subtle nod to classic art deco styling never fails to impress. In fact, one of our favorite features is the godet skirt that adds a flair of movement as you walk across the room or share that honorary moment on the dance floor. The sheer yet beaded cap sleeves offer modest coverage and good range of movement.
Dress Details
Equally important, the dress is cut from English net. The entire gown is adorned with delicate bugle beads and sequins in the tonal shade of the dress. The embellishment is minimal enough to work perfectly for an afternoon wedding. Yet, still striking enough to transition easily to an after 5:00 affair. Due to the overall beaded elegance of this stunner, minimal accessories would be required.
There’s a lot to be said about the lightweight comfort of this piece. No restrictive shape wear is necessary to achieve the slimming effects of this silhouette. With this in mind, lingerie straps can be easily added to accompany a regular bra.
