This stunning dress is a lavish teal Standard ballroom dress by Doré. It is a form fitting dress with a full skirt. The bust is a blouson style with fabric gathering. It has elastic straps with off-the-shoulder long sleeves. The back is open with a deep v-neckline and criss cross straps. Godets made of satin with ostrich feathers going down the middle make up the skirt. Lastly, the skirt has a horsehair hem.

The embellishments on this dreamy dress are nothing but the best. Premium European crystals in Dorado (gold) and Turquoise shimmer and shine. The Dorado stones form their own striking stripes, wrapping around the neckline, down the center, and breaking into horizontal stripes. The Turquoise crystals are like sprinkles glistening all over the dress. This teal Standard ballroom dress comes complete with built-in bra cups, body suit, and plenty of accessories!

Striking stripes, a wardrobe staple. This dress reminds us of Tadashi Shoji’s Spring 2015 collection where he uses stripes in a luxurious way. Shoji took a more ethereal approach, featuring vertical stripes of baby blue and white on his spring gowns. The result was a look that mixed the airy springtime feel of a cotton shirt with the frothy elegance of the evening gown. On our dress, My Cup of Teal, the stripes are what make it edgy and unique. A traditional Standard ballroom dress with a twist!
