I had this gown custom made for me 16 years ago for the Endless Night Vampire Masquerade in New Orleans when I was a guest of honor. That was the one time I have worn it and it has been in thus dress bag ever since. It is absolutley beautiful with black Sequin and lace detailing over a brilliant red. The bottom half has 4 layers for extra volume. This is a floor length gown. I am 5'2" tall and had to wear extra tall heels. Size small.
