Design Details and Benefits
- Belted waist construction - gives the dress a defined shape instead of falling straight
- Garter straps with bow and cross detail - ties the stockings into the costume's theme instead of being a plain clip
The stockings are what make this feel like a complete costume rather than a dress with accessories bolted on. Most nurse costumes stop at the dress and leave you to work out tights or stockings separately, which rarely match. Here the garter straps and stockings are styled with the same bow and cross detail as the dress, so the whole look reads as one considered set rather than pieces from different orders. Worth knowing before you order: the belt is fixed at one point on the dress, so it sits at natural waist height rather than sitting lower on the hip.
