This is an absolutely beautiful and unique dress by designer Eddy K for BHLDN. This gown is truly unlike anything I have seen anywhere else (and I shopped a lot). It has structure to it, but still has the carefree, ethereal spirit that BHLDN is known for. I knew this was the one when I saw my mother's lips mouth "wow." It was the only dress I tried on that made her tear up and the one I kept comparing every other dress to.
This dress is flattering, comfortable, and supportive. While the dress has a vintage feel and is ultra feminine, the lace isn't fussy. The lace is unique, and has a lovely pattern following the shape of the sweetheart neckline around the bust/neckline area that the picture doesn't do justice. The top layer is pure white lace on a sheer, ivory underlayer and a light ivory satin backing. The background makes the white detailing really stand out. The back details are gorgeous; 25 satin buttons run from neck to waist through a shaped sheer design. The train is regal--but is easily bustled for dancing. The dress was not nearly as heavy as I expected it to be with all the layers. I could not have been happier with this dres and hope you enjoy it just as much!
