The dress looks amazing definitely worth the wait! My only critique was I wish the lower mermaid fin had a little more flare. I would agree that I would like to put more variety in my closet and dress out of my comfort zone but here in Michigan is so cold. I would love to wear casual dresses on a daily basis with a pair of platform sneakers even just to go to class. Also I love option 1 it would really look good in bubblegum pink! Sending you love Shania💖💖💖

Yesss! I agree that the mermaid hem should’ve had more fabric 🤔 cheers to adding variety to our closets!! I’ll make note of your vote for option 1 ✏️✨💕
