FABRIC/COLORS: The base fabric feels like acetate, and the dress is lined in the same fabric. The dress is completely covered with rows of zigzag patterned sequins separated by zigzagging narrow plastic-ish braid that looks a little sparkly as the light hits hit. All is black.
TAGS: No maker's tag.
CLOSURES: A long metal zipper in back.
CONDITION: A few loose thread ends around the neckline where 1 or 2 sequins may be missing. No other areas of sequin loss noted, and no stains, holes, tears or other problems seen.
