From Vera: "Gabriela is a V-neck mermaid gown with illusion corset top, cut blossom skirt with tulle overlay and bias horsehair trim." Read more at:
This dress floats and gathers at back naturally so it does not require a bustle.
Gabriela is very comfortable and light-weight to wear; the inner lining is 100% silk. The waist can be tied with the sash as tightly or as loosely as desired, so waist size is very flexible in the dress. I wore this dress with 2.5" heels and I am 5'7.
