The Ophelia Dress. Named after the romantic character of Ophelia in Hamlet, this shimmering, fluid beauty of a gown is fully embroidered with soft, subtle sequins. The chic high neckline is counterbalanced by a completely open plunging back, meeting a beautifully fitted skirt at the derrière which has a petite godet and modest train. Included is an optional delicate ribbon tie which can be looped across the shoulder blades for greater security in keeping the dress in place whilst on the dancefloor. Finished to a couture standard with a meticulously hand-stitched invisible hem. All Rolling In Roses pieces are available in any size.
“This is the very ecstasy of love.” - Hamlet
