    Hi all,

    I am looking for a dress like this one but not strapless. Also, does this type of skirt style has a name?

    Thank you
    Victoria

    It's a Chiffon Strapless Evening Gown, I saw it's on vintage, I don't know you search it on there or not, I also saw many replicas as well on different online stores as well, search it by its name you will definitely find.
     
  3. Victoria, it’s easy to add straps onto any strapless dress too.

    This is called an overskirt. Some may label it a fly away skirt.

    Thank you Nicole. I could try to add straps but I was looking for something that has short sleeves maybe. Either way, I am having a hard time finding one with an overskirt regardless of the bodice style

  6. Victoria, you're right; overskirts are rare but you can always add an overskirt, by creating one out of chiffon and incorporating style elements into the bodice to create a cohesive design.

    They can be very difficult to find out in the wild. :) Best of luck!

  10. Victoria, if you're looking for a particular size, it might help to add the measurements you need.

    I love that one offered by Vintage Vendeuse!

    I have been using GEM search to look to see what's out there. There seem to be more items similar to the one you pictured with the term overskirt (one word, not two). https://gem.app/search?terms=overskirt
