Exuberant vintage 1970s/1980s fashion with this amazing special occasion dress ala Holly Harp! Ruched padded shoulders, sleeves and curvy bodice yoke. Dropped waist with sawtooth detailing. Bodice is scattered with smoky rhinestones. Bubble skirt attaching to a narrower skirt bottom. The entire dress is lined in the same fabric and the inner dress is more structured to give a framework for the draping of the outer layer.
SIZE: Labeled M. Since it is knit, the fabric has some stretch

TAGS: Holly's Harp - it's her earlier lacy tag
CLOSURES: The dress pulls on over the head
CONDITION: Very good to excellent. I don't see any stains, holes, tears or snags. The only small flaw is a tiny area near the bottom of the bodice right on the center seam - it feels firm, and I think there may have been a rhinestone there at one time. To me, it's quite subtle and not significant, but I have included a photo close-up.
