Excellent condition! Looks like new, no signs of wear. Barbara Barbara Petites 8 Vintage 80s/90s black long formal Dress lace sleeves. Stunning evening gown made in usa! Gorgeous black lace top with long sleeves and sweetheart neckline underneath created by a bronze Satin lightly padded part that shows through the lace, so you don't even really have to wear a bra if you don't want to as it is not see-through at all.  twist detail at waist. Nice fabric trim at neckline and end of sleeves. Long slit up the front. Zips up the back with hook and eye closure. the bodice is lined, the skirt is a double layer of fabric. Lace has very nice texture to it with a kind of piping around the design, it's not just flat like cheap lace, rather it is very high quality and has a lot of depth to the pattern. The back part of the lace top plunges to a v in the back but it's not so far down that your bra will show if you choose to wear a strapless one. This is a beautiful dress. Very feminine and romantic. The photos don't do it justice.
