$15.00
Gorgeous event dress, long to the floor. Beautiful Deep Red Velvet with a swiss style banded floral waist band trim. Was either a winter formal or winter bridesmaid dress I would guess.

This is tiny and tall..check measurments. Bust is 30, waist 24, hips ok to a max of 34. Total length from shoulder to floor hem is 52". Inseam of arm is 16" check and measure, no returns for sizing. The only problem I see with it is where there is a kick pleat in the back it has opened up a tear above the opening, needs a quick stitch, easy fix.
