The dress is ivory lace over light gold satin. It was purchased in August 2013 and worn to a wedding 6/7/14. Many compliments were received on the dress!
A beaded belt was sewn in to the dress to add a bit of bling/style but this can be easily removed. The belt cost $374.50 + tax and is included in the selling price.
The train is beautiful - it is a double tiered, scalloped lace hemline. A French Bustle was added and looks beautiful.
The dress is medium weight but does not feel heavy and I beleive a layer can be removed to lighten the dress even more. The back is a corset lace-up with a clip to hook to close it. It is easy to put on and take off, and you don't have to worry if you gain/lose a few pounds because the corset lace gives you the option to tighten or loosen it easily.
