The skirt is cut in an exaggerated and full A-line that has a built in underskirt made of tulle that holds that fullness but without the "cupcake" look that can be harder to wear for most girls. The bodice is squared off with wide straps in the same fabric that curve up and over the shoulder to a slightly lower back.
