Rich stretch velvet, cut specifically for petite proportions, gives this dress its quiet authority. The surplice neckline draws the eye inward and up, the tulip overlay hem skirt adds graceful movement at the floor, and three-quarter sleeves provide the coverage that matters most at a winter wedding or black-tie formal. The velvet moves with you and travels beautifully without wrinkling. Features a concealed back zipper closure. A complete look for Mothers of the Bride or Groom and Grandmothers of the Bride.
