I only wore this dress twice, even though it was so sweet. The bow at the front of the bust is a bit floppy and I've used double sided tape to hold it down in the past. It has been removed without any adhesive left behind. The waist ties did not come with it when I bought it.

The full shirring makes it a very comfortable fit and the gathering makes the shape perfect with a bell shaped petticoat <3

Recently dry cleaned. Comes from home with one cat and one dog. Neither animal has access to dresses.
