This dress is SO sexy and cool. I bought it on sale due to a small tear along the black slit. I always safety pinned it closed and wore it as is, but you could have the back slit sewn to fix it. A little piling from wear but has a lot of life left. Make me an offer! You can fold the top pieces in to make it sleeveless as seen in pic 2. Happy to take more pics and answer questions. First pic isn’t mine but shows what it looks like on as I don’t have one(I don’t fit into this anymore.)
