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. 

The decorative beading strap remains the original for the size 6 + 8, and the size 10 beaded strap has been replaced it is adjustable and has a mix of the original pink and new crystal beads as shown in our customer photos 2, 3, 4. 

Details:

• High slit on side of leg
• Invisible zipper on the side for entry
• Loose fitting dress (fits a 10-small 14)
• Beautiful hand beaded pattern over dress
• Lined
• Cowl front
• Low open back

Sizing & Fit:

We have this dress lined the exact same way in 3 sizes.

Size XS/6 (fits a 6-8)

Size S/8 (fits a 8-10)

Size M/10 (fits a 10-12)

Photos 2, 3 and 4 are of our customer wearing the size 10 which shows how the dress looks lined for reference.

Condition/RRP:

$400 RRP + $335 to add a designer quality lining with top of the line fabric - Full replacement cost would be $735. Take extra care when wearing this garment.
