This dress was custom made by Monica's Bridal. It is a magnificent dress with lace appliques all along the corset bodice and sleeves, embellished with swarovski crystals. The skirt is made of silk taffeta and has pickups with flower embellishments at each pickup. I wore the same flower in my hair and can include that as well. The crinoline is built in so you get the puffiness without the discomfort of having to wear something extra under your dress. Also, because its made of silk, the dress is very light. There is an additional train that you can add on. Also, I added the sleeves to a sleeveless dress so you can remove that easily or I can have it done. The dress is truly beautiful. I wore it once to my wedding in May. Please email me if you have any more questions.
