I was worried the appliqués might feel stiff, but they're surprisingly soft against the skin and the layering gives the gown such a unique, delicate texture. Perfect for a summer wedding guest look.

The lace has a beautiful, dimensional feel without being stiff, and the fit through the bodice is surprisingly flattering. I wore it to a formal event and received so many compliments on the delicate texture.

The appliqués lay completely flat against the sheet lace, so there's no scratchy bulk under the arms. I wore it for a full evening and the texture still looked intricate up close, not flat or cheap.
