.. A dreamy Desses creation, couture (numbered) of course as you will never find a ready to wear Desses ball gown.

.. The gown is made of the most divine guipure lace of black, over a peachy cream silk that gives the faint illusion of sheerness. The lace falls down the body to sharp points. From the hem up is fine tulle over stiff silk that comes up in sharp points. I am amazed by the engineering of this work as it all matches up perfectly even though the tulle is much fuller than the lace. The skirting is further promoted by a silk underdress accented with "horsehair" mesh at the bottom to keep the shape.

.. Back to the top, the bodice is finished off with silk chiffon coming up from the bust and over the shoulders, gathered in 3 places in a classic Desses pleated look.
