About the Dress

*DESCRIPTION*
NOTEE - (Authentically written by the seller - Using own words, no AI description /plagiarism or taken from business or designer websites. I have a genuine passion and love for this dress and want the description to truly reflect how stunning the Celestina is)

Purchased brand new from a highly reccomended and well established bridal boutique - Premier stockists of Sophia Tolli. This high-end preimum 2023 dress has every combination - crepe, fit and flare but also - lace! With beads and sparkle.

NECKLINE - V neck plunge neck line with low nude coloured mesh for modesity and built in cups. The structured bodice and neck line is supported by spaghetti straps.

STRAPS - Double beaded spaghetti straps which criss-cross at the back and fasten inside with invisible poppers.

DEATILING - Bodice is semi sheer and extends into skirt at the hips (not waist!) giving a natural waistline and accentuates the illusion feature, snatching at your best assets!
Bodice detailing is hand beaded which sparkles and is complimentary to the sheering
Train is a long cathedral length and is laser cut lace into a petal shape.

LACE - Placement contours curves and deviates away from those insecure areas to celebrate any shape or size (I never thought a fitted dress was for me)!
Lace trails down the flare of the skirt at the front before softly continuing to the hem, adding texture.

BACK - Low "V shape or plunge" back, sheer lace. Thin beaded straps decorate the back, leaving you feeling "less exposed".

FASTENING - Hidden Zip (easy fasten), finished with a hook and eye fastener and covered by fabric buttons with loop (providing extra support) and extend all the way down to the petal shaped illusion lace cathedral train .
