Oscar de la Renta Cassandra Wedding Dress
The Cassandra, from Oscar de la Renta, is a gorgeous white silk faille wedding dress with lace appliqué and draped bustle. This ball gown style dress has a bodice with boning in it that gives it a corset feel. While it almost looks like a two-piece, the top and skirt are attached. The top is strapless with a sweatheart neckline and a medium low back. The dress has unique ruffled horse hair lace down both sides of the dress and horse hair bottom that holds its shape. Folds in the silk on either side of the waist accentuate the hips. Lace details along the neckline create a delicate look on the chest. There are a couple of areas where light soil can be seen on the skirt, particularly around the hemline and there is a light brownish make-up stain about 0.5" wide and an inch or so long on the side of the skirt.
