I bought this dress final-sale from the Jenny Yoo website during their Cyber Monday sale with the hope that it would work for my wedding. It's just unfortunately too short (I'm 6' tall and my torso is very long) and doesn't have the train I was hoping for. It's an absolutely stunning gown -- super elegant and classy, while also being girly and feminine. This dress can look statuesque and elegant, or bohemian and romantic, depending on how you style it. The lace is beautifully made, and it's a soft material -- not itchy at all. The beading is gorgeous as well -- gives a subtle sparkle without being too much at all. The deep V-back is an absolute stunner, and the sleeves give it an ethereal but elegant vibe. Under the lace is a nude silk slip that flows beautifully over the body. The buttons are real and go all the way down the back, as well as on the sleeves. I already took it to a seamstress who said it's easily alterable thanks to well-placed seaming. The ties you see in the back are easily removable and for aesthetic purposes only; they don't actually hold anything up or together. It also comes with a bag of extra buttons and replacement beading from the designer.
Jenny Yoo description: "The Colette gown is a up-to-date, modern version on the classic, traditional bridal look. An illusion bateau neckline over the wide V-neckline of the dress underlay with thin spaghetti straps gives modest coverage without taking away from the gown’s silhouette. Slim sheer long sleeves with Monaco chantilly lace and Lisbon beaded lace applique create a vintage allure. The A-line skirt flatters the figure and adds to the overall romantic feel of the Colette. This gown is fully lined and has a center back zipper hidden by loop closure buttons and thin tie straps to secure the back. "
