Mystical Magic, a magnificent  Smooth ballroom dress full of beauty and wonder by Alisa Mandel. Firstly, the front and back of the dress have v-necklines. The front neckline plunges, and has a black mesh overlay a nude mesh. The dress is sleeveless, with thick straps. The straps, as well as, the bodice are made from a plum fabric. Black braided rick rack creates princess seams on the bodice. Next, the skirt transitions into a plum fabric, with a black mesh on top. The black mesh has rows of black leafy-like adornments. Lastly, the dress has built-in bra cups, a bodysuit, and an invisible zipper down the center back.

The detailing on this Alisa Mandel dress is stunning and what sets the dress apart from other ballroom dresses. To begin, shiny European crystals adorn the skirt. The high end crystals shine in AB and Fuchsia. Jet black crystals sparkle on the black rick rack trim. Secondly, beading that looks like clear crystal gemstones drape from the braided rick rack seaming. They move and play along while the dress dances. Additionally, the dress has accessories including a neckpiece and a pair of full sleeves. A dress as elegant like this, needs to glitter on the dance floor!

Crystals are beautiful rock formations that are something to behold, something of beauty. They are often in jewelry with other precious gemstones. Crystals come in many shapes and sizes, and what makes them determines how they will form. For example, some crystals can be made from salt and are a cube shape. Quartz is the crystal represented on this Smooth dress. It grows in six-sided columns and ends in a point. Pointed quartz bracelets and necklaces can be seen at every stylish jeweler. We love the idea of adding this precious gem to a ballroom dress!
