This evening gown has been privatly own just by me and purchased for a very elegant black tie affair. As you can see in the pictures the gown has a sweat heart cut at the bust line with two sheer section that cover the bust and excelent for any side that may show. Close to the neck line the material is gathered with a beautiful rhinestone pin sawn in this section that goes to the back and closes with three small buttons. The same sheer material had been put in the back to hide the zipper and a slit in the back has a panel of the sheer material that makes it very comfortable to walk and elegant as the dress moves. This material is not stretchable. The dress is very for fitting and the top portion of the dress is lined with a black material. This is a size 10, but go by the measurements also. Bust area 30", but the dress has about a B cup in addition, Waist is 28", hips are 38" wide and the lenght from the top of the breat section to the bottom is 47" inches. If you love vintage glamour this is one of them.
