This Bill Blass gown is exceptional. It is glamorous and unique.

The fabric is texturized throughout. The bodice has the silver texture which then works its way down the dress where the floral print and color takes over. There are also two pockets at the hip area! Very comfortable.

The sleeves are full with the wrists being elastic in order to be fitted at the wrist. The elastic may or may not need to be replaced depending on if buyer prefers a tighter fit. the gown is fully lined. I noticed a rip in the lining near the left arm pit. This is inside on the lining and completely unnoticeable. There is a portion of the lining at the hem of the dress that needs to be re stitched- again unnoticeable and a simple fix.

There is a back center zipper to allow you to get in and out of the dress. The Bill Blass label and the union label are attached inside. The belt is in great condition. It is the same fabric as the dress. The buckle is fully covered in rhinestones. There are a couple small missing stones- easily can be replaced, but also not distracting or very noticeable. I noticed a couple very small yellowish stains near the left side pocket. These are hard to find and also hard to notice because of the color of the dress, they blend in. Extremely hard to see.

I estimate that this can fit a modern size 4. Confirm sizing with the measurements below.

Shoulder: 15. 5"
