emerald cocktail dress Nicoletta NC1089 in Luxurious Taffeta – Mydressline Mini length The Veridian | Emerald Green

It is trimmed at the collar with lace

The suit-style design looks like a waistcoat and trousers combination but without any of the effort, and a blazer or coat thrown over the top will take it straight to the service

I made this 1920s beaded silk dress a couple of years ago and now we finally took photos of the dress
