Tie Style: Grecian Twist Straight Back

One dress. Over fifteen different ways to style.

With endless ways to wrap The Classic Ballgown, The Grecian Twist, Straight Back is seriously everyone's go to style. This look gives an extra feeling of support in the front from the way the straps are twisted into the back. It can be customized so that you can show off as much as you'd like. The best part about each style is that anything can be custom to your body shape and size. Whatever you want to accentuate or keep covered, there is a style that will give you exactly what you're looking for!

Starting with the straps over each shoulder, situate the dress so the seam is where the underwire of your bra would be. Hold a strap in each hand and keeping your hands slightly higher than the shoulder, twist each strap inwards until you get the desired amount of twist in the front. Then bring the straps together at the nape of the neck and began to gently wrap them over each other to create the rope effect. Tip: If you'd like extra support, stop twisting around the area of your back where your bra would usually sit and bring the straps diagonally down under the side of the bust, crossing over at the front seam line. You can go as far down your back with the twist as you'd like! Then bring around to the back and finish with a knot or a bow to secure.
