This Dress has beautiful Classic lines ! It is all Back Taffetta with a Lolita type off the shoulder ruffle. The Bodice is held in with four subtle stays that will remind you to stand tall and to have excellent posture. The full black skirt ends in a small ruffle to match the shirred ruffle on top
.This Dress BEGS for a full tea length crinoline and has the generous fabric needed to to cover it .It would look great with a pair of and
Demonia shoes in a Baby Doll platform., and fishnet stockings. This is the type of dress that can be re created over and over again because of its Classic style.This gown has wonderful details that are subtle and would lend itself
well to Gothic accessories and chokers , fingerless mesh gloves
.You are limited only by your imagination ... no one has ever accused Goths of having little imagination ...lol ! I have worn it to a New Years Eve Party and a Wedding and felt like an Elegant Queen in it . The dress has been dry cleaned , then it was stored carefully in my Treasure Trove of Imaginative Party Gowns and has not been out of the closet for over two decades. The Gown is in excellent condition and has MANY good years of partying in it left .
I bought it in the mid 1980's when the Mclintock designers were at the top of the Party Dress List. This is a Jessica Mclintock original design-by the the tag inside the dress. We love it but My Daughter will not fit into it .This dress it is just too good to be hidden away forever . If well tended it will probably increase in value as time goes on.
