FINISHING*
This came down to the WIRE to finish! The night before my wedding, I pinned it to blocking mats and just sprayed with heavily with water. The next morning, my “bridesmaid” unpinned it while I was getting ready and it blocked out very well considering!

FIT
The fit was PERFECT. I styled it by wrapping the ends around my waist and pinning it with a broach in the back.
