Villanelle Maxikleid - Elfenbein

The rhinestone contour lines at the waist do exactly what they promise, and the nipped silhouette made me feel genuinely elegant at a formal dinner. Balloon sleeves with fitted cuffs kept everything from looking sloppy, and the full-length hem floated beautifully when I walked.

Wore this to a garden wedding and the chevron yoke of rhinestones caught the light all evening. The balloon sleeves are dramatic but the fitted cuffs keep them from swallowing my hands, and the ivory isn't see-through like I feared.

That rhinestone contour at the waist does exactly what it promises — instant shape without pulling anywhere. The fitted cuffs and modern collar make it feel more sharp and tailored than most white dresses I've tried, even with the dramatic hem. I felt polished the whole evening.
