Let me start by saying I LOVE my dress. I set out look for a open back sheath dress. I wanted a dress that I have never seen any one else in. I feel in love with the back and all the crystals on the front. I also loved how it fit me and how it was silky! The fact that the lace was embroidered was also amazing. I ordered my dress in white.. The one I tried on is ivory.. The embroidery is in a pweter color like silver? I have been looking at so many other gowns and now I'm not sure if I should have chosen something more bridal
