I feel like this dress doesn’t photograph how stunning it actually is. The lace is around the top, the middle and the hem and it is such a nice delicate detail that adds to this dress. There is a black slip dress underneath that adds opaqueness without bulk. I am in the large and it runs generously, but I don’t mind this size for me. It’s nice and loose. I tied the waist as well here and really like how it cinches in, but that is optional. Absolutely recommend for any easy but nice way to dress up this summer.
