This is a reversible dress. It's a deep, subdued red, like garnet, and charcoal gray. I wore the red side more, so there are many small pills on the gray side. There are also small pills here and there on the red side. They're not very noticeable, but please purchase only if you don't mind. The length is below the knee, and the sleeves are about three-quarter length, so you can layer it. There is no washing tag.
