Gorgeous 1950s black rayon chiffon wiggle cocktail dress with gathered overskirt by Anita Modes.

The basic dress is black rayon chiffon lined with black satin acetate - it is strapless with a defined waist seam, wiggle skirt and front and back vertical darting for a flattering fit. Does up the center back with a long metal zipper.

The overskirt consists of two panels of black rayon jersey gathered where they are sewn into the defined waist seam and are open at the center front and back.

The black rayon jersey bodice overlay is gathered where it it sewn into the waist seam and fastens at the back neckline with 3 metal hooks and loops.

The overskirt is slightly longer than the inner dress.

I'm 5'4" and this comes to below my knee. It may be shorter or longer on you depending on your height.
