The very nature of panne velvet is part of what gives this dress its opulent feel. The pile is all set on one direction and lies very flat on the surface giving it a high gloss finish. This "glossing" treatment only adds and picks up the print and shows it off to its best advantage. It has a slight stretch to it allowing the upper portion of the dress to fit snugly and then it glides over the waist and hips to a flared A-line. Love the exaggerated cowl neckline. Excellent condition
Unlined and closes with a back, fine zipper and hook & eye along the back of the neck detail. The fabric does have a small amount of stretch.
