This is a Maggie Sottero Couture Imperial Gown, Vanessa Halter Chiffon.
This dress was only the third dress I tried on total. I bought it at Bridal Beginnings in Mt. Lebanon outside of Pittsburgh. It's a simple and elegant gown that flatters a woman's figure by emphasizing the waist. It's versatile for an indoor or outdoor wedding, any season. We were married in an outdoor wedding in North Carolina in May.
I always thought I would make the dress into drapes or cushions or something beautiful. But then I realized that it's a beautiful gown and should be worn again. Plus, I never became the good seamstress I thought I'd be.
I have lots of pictures I'm happy to share, and you can search the dress name quickly for a view of the back.
Here's another description: Tulle dress, with diamond crystal belt bodices and chiffon fabrics, and the swarovski crystal beads highlights women waist, with drape natural floor-length skirt.
