Strapless bodice and a full acetate skirt (shown here with a crinoline... not included). Side metal zipper. Dress is lined in acetate. Bodice is boned. Matching sheer jacket with self fabric buttons, tie waist and balloon sleeves.

A pin hole on the back of the jacket. A 1/4" separation on the seam at the end of the right jacket sleeve. Three tiny orange spots on jacket.
