This is a lace dress. The lining is integrated, and the top and bottom are connected. The sleeves are made of lace fabric only. There is a zipper on the left side, running from under the arm to the waist. I've worn it twice and had it dry cleaned each time, but due to the nature of the lace fabric, there are a few areas where it's frayed. See photo 5. I wore it to a wedding, but it's the kind of dress that can be worn for other party occasions as well. Dress length: Approximately 89cm Size: 36 Color: Navy
