Sheer sleeveless bodice of blue, green and purple covered with iridescent sequins and green, clear and dark grey-blue glass seed beads. Slit at the back (in the photos of the rear of the gown the slit appears longer than it actually is because the dress was too snug for the form and would not zip all of the way). Attached green satin band with bow at the natural waist. Dress has a full, gathered skirt (shown here with an additional crinoline... not included). Rear nylon zipper. Dress has an attached strapless bustier covered in sea green organdy. Skirt is lined in tan organdy. Although I did not find a label it is a really well made gown.

Size (need help with your measurements? click here): 32" bust, 24" waist, full hips. Approximately 57 1/2" from underarm to hem.

Condition: In good, wearable condition. Some slight yellow at the underarms (very hard to see). Some minor bead loss. The bottom third of the skirt has the following issues... There is a spatter of something black towards the left side. There are some scattered small holes along the hemline. Two scuffs to the satin and a small orange smudge... in most darkened formal settings the dress is fine as is, but it would also be lovely shortened to cocktail length.
