Mikado Meets Corded Lace
The stretch Mikado provides a structured, polished base with a subtle sheen, while matte corded lace appliques cover the bodice and trickle down onto the basque waistline and skirt. Exposed boning on the bodice adds a modern, couture edge, visible through the lace as a design feature. The square neckline sits on wide straps edged with matching lace for a clean, confident frame.
Two Silhouettes in One
The detachable Mikado skirt (style 88516DT) clips on at the waist to transform the sleek fit and flare into a full ball gown silhouette with its own dramatic train. The skirt is crafted in matching stretch Mikado with matte corded lace appliques and hard net underneath for volume. Hidden pockets are built into the overskirt. Wear it for the ceremony, unclip it for the reception.
The V-Back
The V-back mirrors the structured front with a low, open shape that shows off the exposed boning detail. Covered buttons run from the back down to the end of the chapel length train. It's a back that looks refined and striking, especially with the detachable skirt adding volume and drama.
Perfect For...
A bride who wants versatility and couture quality. The fit and flare on its own is sleek and modern for a civil ceremony or reception. Add the detachable skirt and it becomes a grand ball gown for a church or grand venue entrance. The matte corded lace and exposed boning give this dress a fashion forward edge without any sparkle.
