Fully lined bodice, back zip ensure no hair do will be spoilt whilst dressing. length from natural waist: 25 inches.
Hand wash - mixed fibres.

This dress is free fitting on hips due to the swing skirt and skims the waist. The bust area is fairly generous but is more fitted than it looks. For this reason, we strongly suggest that you select your size through the bust measurements.
Style suits pear shapes, hourglass and pillar most.
Fabric at bust area has no stretch in it - so if you are between sizes - it would be advisable to select the size above.
