The photo makes it look like it has pilling, but it's a polka dot pattern. The design cinches at the waist, allowing for a fluffy skirt style. It was widely used for parties and weddings. I'm reluctantly selling it because the skirt length is too short for someone in their late 40s/early 50s. *Price is firm. *I am also selling other wedding guest gowns and mules. If you purchase two or more items, I will offer a discount! Pattern/Design...Solid Sleeve Length...Sleeveless Season...Spring, Summer
