I had this dress professionally tailored to make it sleeveless and a little shorter (because I’m petite). 14” pit to pit. 21” from waist to bottom of dress. 12” diameter at waist. This dress has a faux wrap style so that there is no chance of opening in the chest area. Can be tied around the waist in front or back. Pockets!! The color may look black in the pictures but is actually a dark navy blue. Slit in back that has ripped out a little and needs repair.
