This is a beautiful designer "off the rack" dress. I bought it from a bridal boutique in Mesa, Arizona which specializes in selling brand new dresses from designers across the US such as Adrianna Papell, Martin Thurnburg, Blakely Jones, Casablanca, Eddy K, House of Wu, Justin Alexander etc. The designers sell their dresses directly to the boutique at a discounted price, so the savings can be passed on to the buyer. Most dresses are not labeled with the designer as to keep the affordable pricing for the buyer, and the buyer is able to purchase and take home right "off the rack."
I love the trumpet style of the dress, which is very flattering for hourglass figures. V-neck "plunge" style is still sexy yet subtle, with a mesh cover at the lowest plunge point. When I first tried it on, my initial thought was it is so comfortable! The detailed lace and beading on the train is so whimsical and beautiful. The blush toned underlay adds character and depth to the dress.
