The Halston inspired dress was made for me by Priscilla of Boston. I fell in love with it on the inspiration of my mothers 70's boho gown. My girlfriend in fashion convinced me to not have the train cut off.
The train has an arm hook or you can use a clip to attach the back of the dress for dancing. If your a dancing diva I suggest cutting off the train so you can focus on cutting the rug. Apparently, the clip to hold the train on the back of the dress was not strong enough to sustain serious dance moves so I had to stitch the train to the back of the dress for the afterparty. You may need to fix this if the dry cleaners didn't already...
Chest is lightly padded, because sometimes that's awesome.
