This is truly one of the most outstanding Jean Muir's that I have had the pleasure of having. This late 1970s dress is gorgeous! The color in person is a deep fuchsia tone and is that color that is right between pink and red and is flattering on almost every skin tone. It is constructed from her classic, well cut, top stitched jersey and when on draped so it feel loose and easy but still shows off your curves and feels sexy. The shoulders are lightly padded (you could remove and it will still sit properly) and the waist is elastic so it settles exactly into place on the wearer. The stand out detail is of course the amazing glitter that is hand applied and heat fused onto the fabric. The pattern is actually little grouping of hearts! Perfect for Valentines day and beyond - my team has dubbed this one the "broken hearts" dress for the trail of them you will leave in your wake while wearing it! Excellent condition!

Unlined and closes at the back of the neck with on of her signature half moon, custom made buttons and a loop. The waist is elastic so will accommodate the waist easily. The waist measurement seems long but it is meant to be worn bloused up a bit so the dress is shorter on them the lying flat measurements
