    It is beautiful, very classy, I would keep accessories very muted, maybe some gold and pearl drop earrings, small gold clutch, hair chignon style and nude shoes.

    I'd go with gold jewellery and nude shoes. The lace is the statement so let that take centre stage.

    Really love this!! Yeah I'd definitely keep it simple with nude shoes/clutch, colour isn't needed for a dress like that. Maybe a simple pearl bracelet, but no necklace as it would take away from the front of the dress. Also a loose bun (perhaps with plaits) would really compliment the dress and show off the detail on the back of it...something like this...http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-DKJf1wxfb14/TZkTdONzXiI/AAAAAAAAABo/tapauS0CRzc/s1600/french-braided-bun-2011-9.jpg

    Thanks a million. That's what I thought but just wanted other opinions. The dress is actually even nicer on than the pic and is really well cut so it skims your body rather than sitting on all the wrong parts. Got it on sale for €65 too so delighted with it!

    It's a beautiful dress, do you mind saying where you got it?

    Fabulous dress! Definitely keep the accessories to a minimum. Pearls will work lovely or a small amount of gold.

    No not at all. It's mint velvet (arnotts and house if Fraser stock it). I love their pieces although they're quite grown up clothes! It was sale stock so I'm not sure if there's any left.

    Gorgeous dress-reminds me of the Reiss one Kate Middleton wore when meeting the Obamas. She teamed it with a black clutch, black shoes and a black and gold neck piece.
