Diamond neckline
12 decorative black velvet buttons down bust center
Empire waist
Darts in back at waist
Short sleeves with gathering at top seam and shoulder pads

Pull on

This dress was home sewn predominantly by hand not machine by someone who was possibly learning her sewing craft as the dress is not perfect as you can see in the last couple photos and the uneven hemline
The dress is still lovely and worth a few more spins about.
Priced accordingly
