From what I can find, I believe this is a vintage dress. It is a deep red/maroonish color. Hard to pick up these colors in pics. The dress is short sleeves. There is an over shirt to use as a jacket. Both are thin material and lightly lined. I cannot find a material tag. It is a velvet type material with some stretch. Definitely could wear the dress without the shirt/jacket and the could pair the shirt/jacket with many outfits! The shirt/jacket is button up. There are initials written on the dress tag. The dress seam is down the back. This would be a fabulous dress for the holidays or any event! Would be great for a cruise! Great pre/owned condition. Smoke free/animal friendly home. Color will vary slightly due to lighting. Size 18 The shirt/jacket bust area is approximately 24.5 inches. The length is approximately is approximately 27 inches. The dress bust area is approximately 23.5 inches The length is approximately is approximately 51 inches. Measurements are taken flat and not stretched.
