This is an easy to wear and elegant Ballgown. Ian Stuart designs well structured dresses that are easy for women to wear. This dress comes with a matching bolero jacket which complements the belt. The dress was made to my measurements and does not have a designated size. I wear a street 16/18 with the largest measurements through the bust 38F( (DDD) and The dress was designed to Fit 5' 7" at the tallest. The dress has been altered. It was taken in in the waist, has had some of the volume removed by removing two of the four petticoats and an elegant French bustle with 7 bustle hooks and two snaps has been added discreetly. The dress has been professionally cleaned and placed in a cloth bag for storage. The dress will need to be steamed and can be done with a hand steamer. The dress was amazing for our indoor/outdoor wedding in Late May 2015. I thought I would be too warm but I didn't need to take off the bolero at all. I loved the pinkish, champagne color, received many compliments, and felt comfortable in this superbly tailored gown!
