• Outstanding designs from this era are increasingly hard to find and this beautiful dress is a joy to see.
• Made entirely of a black silk velvet that is light and has incredible movement and softness.
• The dress is completely bias cut and drapes over the bust, comes in at the waist and then skims over your hips to fall to the floor in a beautiful expanse of silk velvet.
• The skirt widens out as it nears the floor and the back is cut slightly longer for a bit of a sweeping feel.
• The sides are set in a bit of low plunge and the back plunges right to the waist. It is simply a beautiful dress.
• Unlined and completely cut on the bias
• Slips on to wear with no closures
• It's a piece that can accommodate a lot of sizes because of the range of movement the bias cut has. I've put extra small to medium, but it might even work on a large as long as the waist works.
• Excellent condition
