This dress is absolutely stunning and I received so many compliments! I wore it as a guest to a black tie wedding but can also see this being a knock out for prom or a pageant. The jersey material allows some stretch (I’m typically a size 2-4 in Jovani and the size 0 fit great - 34B and 27 inch waist) It’s the perfect combo of sexy yet sophisticated with the high neck front and low cut back. It’s got an amazing train and horse hair bottom. I had it altered to include bustle points at the train and sides for ease of dancing if desired and hemmed to fit 5’7” with heels. As written on the Jovani website, “Mature lush and fitted mermaid gown. Get gorgeous in a glam gown from Jovani 47100. The sleeveless bodice features a refined neckline. The fitted design is snug against your figure. The mermaid skirt flares from your legs with natural ruching. This full-length style dances to the floor and widens into a sweep train for an animated effect.” *The dramatic train was not hemmed but bustle points were added for ease of dancing and wear, can be seen with the three bustle points in the last two photos*
