This dress resembles the one I'm describing.
You can view the actual dress at Vera Wang's site,
where it is the first of a stream of images to flash at
her main page.
I wrote in yesterday's post that Vera Wang's black "gown" (and what to me looks like a black version of her wedding dress) appears on the August issue of Elle USA. It is actually in the September 2010 Elle USA (already!). And you can still view it flash across Vera Wang's website.
