About MeTin dipped beige silk dress with an attached white lace collar and slight train.

This exquisite dress shows some of the techniques used to enhance the bust and upper body area. Horizontal ridged trimming across the bosom adds fullness while the lace collar gives the effect of broadening the shoulders. The dress is balanced by the addition of lace trimming near the bottom of the skirt
