I wore this dress to my wedding last month in a historic theatre venue. I have had the dress professionally cleaned by a well-known and reputable dry cleaner in the area. The dress is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS and is very figure flattering. I found breasts that I never knew I had (hello, ladies) and with the addition of a two hoop underskirt (that I rented) my waist looked teeny tiny. I barely had any alterations done (see below for alterations description) and was perfect for my big day.
From J.Crew:
This timeless ball gown is made from the finest silk dupioni, a fabric known for its unique lustre and subtly textured finish. (The pinnacle of elegance, silk dupioni works for any season and photographs beautifully.) The lack of embellishment on this silhouette lets you pile on the jewels or just revel in its stunning simplicity—it’s your day, so it’s up to you. Another reason to love it? It’s finished with discreet on-seam pockets for stashing extras like lipstick and tissues.
