Metal Talon side zipper.
Today's size: XL 16/18, but refer to measurements better fit.

Fabric type Unknown. It is a heavy sheer. Due to its heavier weight it is not chiffon or light flowey fabric, it haa more drape than a airy flow.

Main flaws:
Left Armpit needs some repair
Right armpit shows signs of wear and age, also repairable.
Back Right armpit has strain at the seam for 2" to 3"
(Left arm looks to have had a patch/gusset added for a little extra room, but Right armpit does not.)
Buyer check the seams throughout as I have seen a few areas that could use a couple resecuring stitches.
Dress needs to be washed...
more details will be put in the comments....

Despite all these minor flaws I truly can see that this dress is in great condition. It is ready to wear despite the flaws and with a wash and a little attention here and there, it is truly a charming dress.

Dress needs to be washed as there is body moisture marks throughout (mostly at underarms, back neckline, and areas on the bodice and skirt.
Couple moth nips
Belt loop on left side of dress is frayed and broken.
There are places on the dress (mostly the skirt) that have a sheen that is a classic look of someone ironing the dress on the outside and not the inside, therefore leaving a 'heat-sheen' on the fabric.

All fruit basket Buttons are hand sewn on and the top two are meant to have snap buttons. Top snaps are secure, 2nd to top button is missing a snap, bottom three buttons are sewn on the fabric but no snaps are sewn on.
