I wore this dress for the Miss Grand USA pageant and it is STUNNING. Covered in tons of small purple pearls and purple sparkles that gleam in light or on stage. Exquisite lace overlay. Very high quality, body shaping, and thick materials. This was originally from a high end brick and mortar prom/ evening gown boutique. The winner of the Miss Grand USA pageant had a very similar style custom dress in green. This one is a STEAL. Pictures featured at the end show similar styles of Miss Grand International dresses worn recently! Very up to date, illusion dress style. No alterations or hemming. A purple scarf was temporarily clipped on with a safety pin. There may be very small rips and loose beads, but nothing that will change the overall integrity or style, quality, or WOW factor of the dress. It is no longer new with tags but was prior to me purchasing it and only wearing a couple times. If you’re interested in the jewelry and purple scarf in the photo- let me know and I will possibly sell that together as a set. 🙃 This way, your entire event outfit will come in one easy, one stop shop set! 100% smoke free home .
