This sash is MUCH nicer than other bachelorette or bride-to-be sashes that I have bought. At a recent bachelorette party, all of the guests were commenting about how this sash was nicer than others they've seen. The fabric is silky, and it has two layers, which provide a little extra weight to help the sash lie flat and ensure it won't irritate skin on a strapless outfit.The sash also has a visually pleasing end that looks like an upside down "V" or a fish tail. The visual effect is to make the sash look more finished. The pink is very bright, and the font on the sash can make it a bit harder to read than other sashes. There are minor wrinkles when you pull it out of the package, but these can be steamed out.The sash is large enough to accommodate a variety of sizes, without dwarfing those brides on the smaller end of the spectrum.
