This dress is gorgeous! Multiple layers of multi patterned silk crest a very boho Stevie Nicks retro rock n roll feel. The material is light and airy and floats when it moves. Flutter sleeves complete the look. Made in Italy. Size Italian 44 = American 8. I am an xs and the dress looks great even as an oversized piece. There are a few small tears (see pictures) . IMO they can be mended by a seamstress.
