1970s vintage maxi dress with incredible wide draped angel sleeve with a faux wrap style bodice with sash tie, stretchy elastic waistline, and asymmetrical high-low draped wrap style maxi skirt. The wide draped angel sleeves are two pieces of fabric on each arm, hang free and could be tied together, but I like them loose as shown..way more drama! The sleeve themselves are cuffed with elastic cuffs. Matching tie waist belt, unlined, stretchy, midweight unique microtextured (kind of nubby, see the closeup pic) slinky stretchy fabric. There are several dark marks on this dress that are most obvious on the sleeves. I have hand washed this dress and unfortunately they did not come out, but the way the sleeves sit when worn disguise the discolorations. There are no holes or other issues...a really glamorous and statement making piece that flatters the form in every way!

• size recommendations are determined by carefully taken measurements and my decades long experience in wearing vintage clothing. Size recommendations often differ from the label and may also differ from your expectations of that size. Label sizes are inconsistent between brands and are highly subjective in general so the absolute best way to determine fit is to compare the measurements within the listing details to your own body's measurements or against a similar item that fits you well.
