This is a regal gown fit for any evil queen from Begotten by Dilek Atasu who designed some gorgeous dresses during the 90s. I purchased this dress at Hot Topic in the late 90s and only wore it once for a shoot, then it was stored away. No snags or tears. The collar stands up like a sorceress collar due to the stitched panels. The front and the sleeves lace up and are adjustable. The bust is trimmed in lace at the top. There is a zipper on the back for convenience. The black velvet and red and gold fabric has no stretch but you can tighten or loosen the lacing. It is a size Large and my mannequin is a size 6 34B, but please go by the measurements.
