But, instead of closing back into a point at the top of the shape, it diverges again and makes the top of the dress on each side of Nikki. This cut is then made into a diamond shaped cutout. This piece is cut in half at the start of the underbust. This is then layered on top with a lighter shade of purple that doesn't have the stars effect on it. In the middle of the bodice, at the bottom, is the same fabric with the same hem as the bottom-most skirt. The bodice has a wasp-like design with the structuring and the seams. The floor itself has sparkles under the dress. Sparkles appear, drift downwards, and vanish around and inside the dress. The skirt projects a rainbow halo effect, radiating out from Nikki, onto the floor. It also has a mist effect where it looks like it is constantly shifting in different shades of purple. The underside of the skirt is a dark velvet purple with thousands of glittering stars and the occasional meteor. This layer of the skirt is then folded repeatedly to make a framing effect, resembling the sides of a curtain at a theater, that shows the legs and the underside of the skirt. On the bottom edge of her skirt are two layers of a darker sparkly opaque purple fabric with a unique hem where it is a saw pattern with 3 teardrop cutouts in the middle of each little triangle. Scattered all over the skirt are numerous gold crystal stars that reflect and refract the light in such a way that they seem to glow. On Nikki's back, the beads have 2 rows, which become one row at each side of her back. This string of gold beads with crystal teardrops outlines the border between the bodice and the skirt. This is held in place by gold crystal stars, on each side of Nikki's hips, attached to a string of golden beads with gold crystal teardrops hanging from them. At the top of the skirt, there is a peplum, the fifth layer of this purple semi-sheer fabric, that wraps around Nikki's body from one hip to the other. The fourth layer is made of two pieces that crisscross in the back to make a triangle of more saturated fabric. The skirt has five-ish layers of purple translucent fabric with scalloped edges. This is a vibrant purple strapless dress with a floor length skirt, covered in gold stars, that is open in the front, showing the legs.
