From the 1980s (in case you couldn't tell), a party dress with all the best 80s features.

High-quality cotton velvet in a deep-purple-and-black, subtle floral print
Sleeves for days! Not just puffy, but double layer, creating a tulip silhouette
Bodice features a sweetheart neckline, princess seams, and slightly dropped waist
The back! Open, plunging "bow" design, without a too cute actual bow. The center "knot" has stretch, making this dress extra comfortable. As with the sleeves, the back is made up of two layers, each lined in silky solid black
Full, unlined skirt to wear with or without a crinoline (displayed for you with a small petticoat, not included)
Side zipper closure
Made in Hungary
