Beautiful vintage/retro inspired gown, by There Is Only You and Me for BHLDN. Has a definite "Gatsby" feel with unique detail work, including beading and an open-back style with flattering drape and twisted fabric. The dress is definitely ivory, despite looking (at least on my monitor) white in the official BHLDN photos.
I purchased this as a sample and it has never been worn out, just tried on. No tags and the inner label was marked at the store (see photo). Has been kept safe in a cotton garment bag in a smoke-free home.
Please note: I am 5'11" and the dress did not touch the floor for me. So, if you want to wear any sort of heel and not have your shoes visible, I think 5'9" is about the maximum "with shoe" height you can go with this one. But it also looks very beautiful as more of an ankle-length style.
Please let me know if you need any additional measurements, photos, etc!
Here's the dress description from the BHLDN website:
Like piped buttercream, rows of pleated chiffon create a bit of flare at the hem of rich stretch crepe that drapes over the body to highlight a lady’s curves in the most desirable of ways. At the back, twists of fabric are suspended above a peek-a-boo opening (a luscious way to polish off a sophisticated profile, indeed!). A There Is Only You and Me original, designed exclusively for BHLDN. Side zip and snap closure. Professionally clean. Imported.
