Small pulls can happen overtime.

Please note: We have lined this dress with a stunning tan silk from just below the cowl neck to the bottom of the dress. Therefore it is not sheer and the cowl neck is double lined and falls in a way that provides coverage. I still recommend a back less stick on skin colour bra or pasties or skin coloured boob tape.

Colour/beading may vary slightly from photos due being a handmade garment.

All 3 sizes have recently been replaced and are more of a cream colour than ivory, due to the designer hand making these and changing the fabric slightly.

Please collect any beads that may fall off during your rental so we can stitch them back on. Any excessive loss of beading will result in the full replacement cost being charged. 

Light colour, please do not walk through mud/dirt/water - excessive staining around the base will result in the replacement cost being charged. These dresses are not long enough to hem if damage occurs to the base so please keep that in mind.
