The elegant notched sweetheart style neckline is accented by a wide halter neck strap, which fastens along the nape with hook and eyes. The fitted bodice, is set off by tailored seams which run along either side of the front of the bodice, drawing the eye to the fitted waistline. The elegant and simple skirt-line is finished with a side pleated vent along the left hand side seam, creating a subtle flutter with every stride.
