Stunning dress by designer Ronit Zilkha. Full-length with small train/ fishtail (longer at the back). This was bought for a wedding party, but never used. It could be perfect as a bridesmaid dress, party, Christmas, birthday.. It has never been worn.
But it was tried on by my bridesmaid. There are a couple of tiny marks on the fabric one inside neckline on lining - not visible outside and very hard to photograph.
There is another tiny mark low on the flowing fabric at the back. Please see the photos for details. NB If you are seriously interested / or worried, please contact me and I will try to do full close-ups. It is a dusty, pale pink colour.It is a gorgeous pure silk gown with self-colour glass beading around neck, waist and back opening. There is a high neck which contrasts with the amazing deep back opening to create a stunning very classy design.
It is cut very skilfully and the appearance on the hanger doesn't give it justice. It hugs curves but flatters a slim build too.
The hemline is longer at the back - making a small train, falling into a beautiful fishtail shape right from the base of the back opening. We are a pet-free / smoke-free household.
