Merci Italia Womens Deco Velvet Burnout Dress Purple Sheer Italy Size 40 Size 4

Merci Italia Velvet Burnout Dress Size 40 Size chart in US says size 4. Looks very small to me. Please refer to measurements to ensure proper fit. Sleeves fit fairly slim as does the waist. The shade of purple is gorgeous! The sleeves, FRONT and BACK of the TOP half of the dress are sheer. The bottom half of the dress is lined. In excellent pre-loved condition Thank you so much for looking!
