A sweetheart neckline sits over strong, softly padded shoulders. The long fitted sleeves end in neat zippered cuffs. The bodice closes with a button front, and the skirt falls in fluid, vertically hung panels to an ankle hem with a slight sweep at the back. The matching velvet belt has a self-covered buckle. Three gold-tone buttons, each with a faceted crystal in a smoky setting, add the only ornament, so the velvet carries the dress. It has the weight and drape of true silk velvet, and the hand-finished feel of a well-made piece. In very good condition, freshly cleaned and ready to wear. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e✂️ M E A S U R E M E N T S *\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBust: up to 38\" \u003cbr\u003eWaist: up to 28\"\u003cbr\u003eHips: open\u003cbr\u003eLength: 54\"\u003cbr\u003eFits like a medium \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel: Martini Designed \u003cbr\u003eMaterial: silk velvet \u003cbr\u003eCondition: very good overall with some minor signs of wear only noticed upon close inspection.
