Odd dress, either home sewn from scratch or maybe it was an older dress that was altered. It is all sheer chiffon with velvet floral design. The dress is pullover style with no openings. Square neckline trimmed in lace and plastic rhinestones. The ends of sleeves are tapered (about 7-1/2 inches around wrists) they also have lace and rhinestones. No seam at waist. There are 23 inch slits up both sides of the dress. A tight squeeze to get into since there are NO OPENINGS.
Slip and belt are not included.
CONDITION: The dress is in very good condition. There are a few small snags in the chiffon, some areas of wear to the velvet. The dress has been taken in about 2 inches sown each side. The extra fabric is kind of bulky inside. The underside of sleeves have also been taken in.
