Flutter Sleeve Floor-Length Evening Gown
Style # 8296771
Designed for petite proportions, this empire waist gown sits beautifully at the natural waistline to elongate your frame, with a sequin-embroidered bodice that catches light at every turn and soft mesh layers bringing romantic texture to the skirt's graceful cascade. Flutter sleeves add gentle movement and the V-neckline is polished without being severe. Built-in bra cups and a concealed back zipper closure. A natural choice for petite Mothers of the Bride or Groom, Grandmothers of the Bride, and formal wedding guests.

"Dress fit well, but needed to be hemmed."
"I got this dress for an upcoming wedding, this is the first time I tried a petite size and at 5'5"" it fit perfectly--no added cost on tailoring--Yay! I followed the size guide and it is a good fit, a tiny bit snug in the bust but overall it fits fine. It appears to be comfortable and should work well for a May wedding."
"Purchased for a Mother of the bride gown. The dress was shipped in beautiful condition. The length was a perfect petit!"
"I needed a dress (Mother of the Groom) for my son's wedding and after four failed attempts on other dresses I got this one in the mail tried it on & it was perfect. I was able to move/dance easily in it. The top portion fit perfectly & length was perfect. I'm very happy with it."
