The top sparkles with a wide panel of dense scrolling sequins, with princess seams on either side. Love its film noir siren strappiness, and the peaked detail where the top of the bodice attaches to the straps.
The skirt is a long, slender pencil skirt, with a long sexy walking slit on the back.
Very Marilyn, very Joan, very Hollywood bombshell.
