This simple lace dress is timeless and elegant. I can't tell you how many compliments I have received for my girls when they wear this dress. Both have worn it to weddings, first communions, christenings, and birthday parties. When it was time for our family photo shoot there was no question in my mind as to what they would be wearing, which alleviated a lot of my worries leading up to that day. I love the 3/4 length sleeves that have a dainty scalloped trim which is the finishing touch on both the sleeve ends and bottom of the dress. The soft lace overlays a cotton slip.
