This beautiful dress is a little different from the majority of handkerchief dresses you see this one is actually three handkerchiefs instead of two The straps are elasticize so that bus line will stretch easily to fit an extra large or an even an extra extra large. The fabric is 100% silk in a paisley black white and gray print. A beautiful piece and also has some ribbons at the bodice that you can leave loose or tire around the back if you want a little more fitted luck. And you know silk it just flutters in excellent condition there are a couple of pulled threads I don’t feel they affect her like at all
