I loved wearing this gown by by Anna Maier – Ulla Maija. It is a simple and clean a-line/column made of duchess satin, and its structured shape makes it very flattering. It has a billowy detachable train in the back that either bustles or is completely removable for dancing. Buttons cascade down the zipper in the back for a clean look if you decide to remove the train for the reception.
I purchased this dress at Marina Morrison in San Francisco, and I had a custom-made shawl to cover my shoulders that I will include with the dress. It attaches with buttons to drape around the shoulders.
