Priyanka Dress

9.00

Priyanka is a close-fitting dress with an accentuated waist. The dress consists of a bodice and skirt joined at the front only. The front bodice is made of lace and partially lined with the main fabric. The back bodice features a shaped bottom edge and a full-length slit at the center back. It closes with buttons and button loops at the top and bottom. The dress has a heart-shaped neckline. The close-fitting silhouette is achieved through a bias-cut design of the skirt that features waist darts and an invisible zipper in the center back seam. The short set-in sleeves are pleated at the cap and hem. Priyanka is ankle-length.
