Jovani 43422 Strapless Sweetheart Keyhole All-Over Ruched Mermaid Gown

Jovani 43422 is a mermaid gown worked in fine horizontal gathering over the entire garment, from the gathered band that crosses at the centre bust down through the waist and leg. A narrow keyhole slot opens beneath the crossing, a boned corset panel sits below the bust band with its channels showing through the gathers, and the skirt holds close over hip and thigh before flaring sharply from about the knee into a wide hem that finishes level at the floor.
