This stunning Nicolina gown is timeless. The cut of the dress slims the waist and the gown falls from the waist. The pictures speak for themselves. It is a size 8 however I am more a size 10-12 and it fitted perfectly. Never had any alterations, dry cleaned and boxed ready to ship. Wear with a hoop or without. Hand beaded breast area and front area and rear area. Matching veil available with price tag still attached. There are little beaded sleeves that come with it, so wear with or without straps. A very forgiving style dress that will suit anyone. Lace up rear with corset built in underneath means no last minute alterations needed, just tighten or loosen dress. Will consider all genuine offers.
