An elegant open back is one of our favorite details for a stylish first dance dress.  It goes without saying that many brides want the back of their wedding dress to be as stylish as the front.  We believe it's just as important for your Reception Dress and First Dance Dress to have a beautiful back detail.  One of our favorites is the Sydney Little Black Dress (also available as a little white dress).  Featuring an unforgettable skirt that gracefully twirls during your first dance, the Sydney also features an elegant open back detail with chic minimalist design lines and narrow straps.  It is also available with an optional satin bow detail.

The short wedding dress was once a radical departure; today it is simply a sophisticated choice for a white rehearsal dinner dress, a wedding reception second look, and an after party wedding dress. The bridal mini dress honors the heritage of 1960s couture and makes an equally compelling case as the second look.
