Gorgeous doesn't even begin to describe this gem! In a very fine rusty red rayon crepe, this dress has so many beautiful details. It boasts a keyhole neckline that comes together with a self-tying bow, and a yoke adorned with glittering copper glass beads in a soutache design. There is an unusual triple triangle peplum at the waist which adds a lovely balance to the design. Closes with a metal side zip. Perfect for everything from a night out on the town to a formal event!
Measurements:
Bust: 34" best, up to 36" max
Waist: 26-27"
Hips: 44"
Length from shoulder to hem: 44.5"
Condition: The dress was originally a copper color with uneven fade, and it was dyed a deeper rusty red shade to even it out. The color is slightly uneven across the shoulders (it's a touch darker, but is a very subtle gradient), and there are a few small spots on the bodice and skirt. This dress presents beautifully.
