I HAD THIS DRESS ALTERED SIGHTLY FROM THE ORGINAL LOOK. I REALLY WANTED THE 'WINDOW PANE' LACE LOOK IN THE BACK THAT GOES INTO A V. I WENT TO A SPECIALTY SHOP IN NASHVILLE, TN. I HAD THE SEAMSTRESS THERE ORDER EXTRA LACE WHEN SHE ORDERED MY DRESS (DIRECT FROM MORI LEE). SHE THEN ADDED IN FULLER LACE STRAPS THAT GO INTO THE WINDOW PANE V IN THE BACK. THE ALTERATIONS WORK WAS DONE BY AN 89 YEAR OLD WOMAN BY THE NAME OF LUCY PULLEY, SHE DID WORK FOR DOROTHY LAMOUR AND FOR COLOMBIA PICTURES THROUGHOUT HER CARRER AS A SEAMSTREE. THE MODIFACATIONS ARE ABSOLUTELY FLASSLESS. I ORDERED A SIZE 6 AND THEN ENDED UP HAVING TO HAVE IT LET OUT IN THE HIPS. IT IS CLEAN AND THERE IS NO DAMAGE TO THE DRESS WHAT SO EVER.
