Is this dress appropriate for a wedding guest?

Yes. The embroidered mesh and midi length suit wedding guests, especially for daytime, garden and cocktail dress codes. It is less formal than a floor-length gown.

How does it compare with Mac Duggal's beaded dresses?

It is lighter and softer. Beaded Mac Duggal styles are heavier and more formal, while this one relies on embroidery and a ruffled hem for its dressy look.

What is the fabric and lining?

The shell is 100% polyester embroidered mesh. The body is fully lined; the cap sleeves are sheer and unlined.

How long is the dress?

It measures about 48 inches from the top of the shoulder to the hem, which lands at midi length on most wearers. Taller shoppers may find it shorter.

How should I care for the embroidery?

Treat it gently. The mesh snags easily, so avoid rough surfaces and follow the care label, which typically calls for hand washing or dry cleaning.

Does it have a zipper?

Yes. There is a concealed back zipper, and the ruffled hem finishes the skirt.
