Incredible strapless ribbed cotton floral print party frock in brilliant jewel tones accented with black sateen.
The fabulous floral pattern is so exuberant I cant really tell if the flowers are supposed to be iris or orchids. A totally gorgeous print either way and the vertical texture adds even more interest to this fantastic fabric.
The dress was too small for my manni so you may not be able to see the sexy shape of this properly but the combo of the strapless treatment, princess seaming, drop basque waist, two gathered flounce tiers, black sateen accent bands and bow detail make this piece nothing less than drop-dead-gorgeous.
100% cotton and it is most definitely a force to be reckoned with.
Aside from the floral print, the entire dress is lined in black, as is each flounce. Under each flounce is black tulle. The lower tier then also has an attached slip under the tulle.
