I purchased this dress at Dillards a year or so ago. It has never been worn. It is in perfect condition. It is difficult to see how beautiful the color is in photos. It is the deepest peacock blue. Just stunning! It is shiny and almost fairy-like with the handkerchief sheer trim. The metallic beading around the v-neck is a gunmetal color but looks sparkly and has almost the appearance of tiny rhinestones from a distance. It is really a gorgeous gown/dress. Perfect for dancing as it twirls. If I had somewhere to go, I’d keep it. Lol This would be beautiful for a holiday party or mother of bride or groom dress!
