This crepe satin gown has absolutely stunning beaded detail. I bought the floor sample of this dress at Say I Do Bridals in Verona, NJ and then decided on a different gown. This dress has never been worn outside of the boutique but the bottom 3-4 inches of the skirt of the gown are soiled from floor dust. I am 5'7'' and my seamstress said that dress would not need to be cleaned for me because the soiled portion of the skirt would be cut off when hemmed. I think that this dress would be an ideal purchase for a bride who is 5'7'' or shorter so that cleaning would not be necessary.
