The skirt-line features a forest green tiered tulle design, which is decorated with scattered silver claw set rhinestones along the central part of the front. The tiered tulle skirt is framed by a lace overlay, which drapes along either side of the front and continues along the back of the skirt. The skirt features a rayon lining, a simple layer of tulle, above which a layer of pleated tulle and is finished with a the lace overlay.

The claw settings along the rust have all rusted, and leave rust marks beneath the rhinestones. Some very gentle colour variation to the tiered tulle design of the skirt, where some layers appear more vibrant than others, this appears to be the effect of prolonged exposure to sunlight during storage. A small rust marks along the back of the bodice just above the waistline. A very small rust mark along where the original hook and eye was positioned above the side zip. Natural and light colour variation to the rayon lining. These minor issues are in no way apparent when the dress is being worn and only noticeable upon closer inspection.
