When I look at the dress, all I can think of is the girl who is probably a grandmother by now who lovingly made it. Did she have fun at her prom? Did her boyfriend like the color? Did he dress to match? Did she go home all starry eyed and write about it all in her diary?
This dress is just so dreamy. It's got a simple boned, spaghetti strap bodice with a sweetheart bust line and princess seams and full circle-plus skirt of baby blue sheer light fabric that's got an all over white eyelet embroidered pattern. It's fully lined with matching satin.
The Nitty Gritty:
It does have a couple of issues. Namely, toward the bottom in front it has a stain on both layers. It seems like something was spilled on it. I gave the whole dress a good soak in cold water and the stain did lighten, but it didn't go away. I don't have access to a dry cleaner, but you might try that to see if the stain will disappear or fade more. You could also shorten the skirt from ballet length to knee length, which would take care of the problem. The stains are visible, but not prominent. I am quite sure that a dry cleaner could reduce them further. Otherwise it's in good condition.
No labels. This dress is clearly handcrafted. I'm calling it a small.
Measurements are taken with the garment lying flat. Double for the full measurement. Remember that these are the measurements of the garment, not your body, and leave a little room to breathe!

Waist: 13"

Total length from back to hem: 41"
