I purchased this beautiful Grace Loves Lace Verdelle gown for my July 2017 wedding directly from Grace Loves Lace in 2016. The designer stopped making this design with this gorgeous lace (after they ran out of this lace, they started producing the gown with a different lace); this dress was actually the very last one they made. It cannot be found anywhere else!
The gown is VERY stretchy and luxuriously comfortable (a real blessing when you're moving so much on your big day). It also helps with fit. The dress is a size XS and I'm a size 0 in dresses and pants, waist size 25. I believe it would also fit the next size up because the lace is stretchy and the waistband is elastic. The bust is quite supportive if needed- a shelf bra is built-in.
From the designer: Beginning with a fitted stretch French lace body, with a flattering V-front neckline, the Verdelle gown elegantly highlights the décolletage. The stunning open back and sheer, long cape sleeves, handmade with an open weave intricate lace blend, are the statement feature of the unforgettable Verdelle. With a short lining and a mid-thigh, centre front split for the floor length gown, the Verdelle is a versatile and timeless dress.
