It's not the beachy lace type it's more of the formal lace dresses that is why I am super loving it. I can maybe even wear this to a formal cocktail event with a satin tank top and a thin belt. It's so comfortable, has a slight stretch. Looks high end and the length is perfect. At first, I thought with all the lace and the tiers, it might be over the top but no, it's perfect! Completely sold!
