Strapless dress are very finicky for fit. They are my most returned item. You want the bust to fit snugly, but you also want to be able to breathe. To make sure something will fit, take measurements from a piece of clothing that fits you well and use those measurements to compare. If you use your personal actual measurements, you should always figure needing two inches extra for breathing room. Label- No label present. This is a well made, quality garment and must have been pretty pricey in the day. Closes with side plastic zipper Fabric is a smooth satin acetate. It has a subtle shimmer in the light.

I was heavily into wearing vintage, the blues, and 1940s lounge singers. I used to brag that I hadn't stepped a foot into a mall since high school. But now, looking back, I have come to appreciate the uniqueness of the 80s. The exuberance. The over the top drama. The utter fearlessness of expression. It has become a marvel to me and I am delighted when I find it now. I like the rich and deep blue color. it is like a sapphire jewel. I always like a bubble skirt for the shape and drama it gives. This is a dress that is both elegant and lots of fun. "Fashion you can buy, but style you possess. The key to style is learning who you are, which takes years. There's no how-to road map to style. It's about self expression and, above all, attitude." Iris Apfel "People will stare. Make it worth their while." Harry Winston This dress will ship in a priority mail box to protect the boning. The volume of satin fabric puts this dress at well over 1 pound. I am always happy to combine shipping. I have a large amount of vintage clothing and am always adding new pieces.
