The culotte part has a glossy look, making it recommended for parties such as weddings and year-end parties!! Although the top and bottom are connected, the waist has elastic, and the dotted blouse part on top drapes softly, making it cute(^^) I have worn it about twice and washed it at home, but there are no particular stains. The sleeves are sheer. The culottes are above the knee. The back is open, so an inner layer is needed. *Please purchase only if you understand that this is a used item and has been stored at home.
