Alex Evenings Formal Dark Purple Dress with Matching Bolero Top Purple Polyester Fully Lined Scoop Neck Vintage by Alex Evenings$40.00
Made in the USA by Alex Evenings, this vintage regal purple formal dress is a sheath style, with an 18 inch front slit to show off your leg. There are 2/3 inch wide straps that end at the front bodice with a pave rhinestone half moon accent. The exterior is opaque polyester fabric for the dress and sheer polyester fabric for the short bolero style cover up's full sleeves. Those gathered sleeves are double layers of sheer polyester chiffon. A double half moon clasp closes the top of the bolero.
The lining is acetate. Light boning in the bodice area helps form the feminine shape of this dress. A back zipper makes it easy-on and easy-off.
Truly flattering, it is perfect for so many dressy events and body types. Look at the close up photos to appreciate the design details.

The labels inside read "Alex Evenings, 100% polyester, Lining: 100% acetate, Dry Clean Only, RN 79283, Made in USA" and there is another tag that shows this dress was sold to the original owner by the Rizik Bros. store in Washington.
There are no stains, holes, worn areas, faded areas, snags or seams unraveling anywhere.
View of the back are shown and here you can see that this dress is too large for my model, so it had to be clipped in back. Please use the measurements provided to assure your personal best fit.
This set is in Very Good Vintage Condition. The original owner wore it and removed the size tags. Also it appears the top edge of the front side slit has been reinforced. That is not a deal breaker, however I want to point it out to any potential new owner.
Freshly cleaned, it comes to you from a home with no pets and no smokers.
