This is a lovely colored dress in a burgundy-like color. Depending on the lighting, the color is a mix of purple and red, which is hard to describe. It was very well-received by the guests. I wore it once for about 2 hours at an indoor reception. I am the 2nd owner, so the person I'm selling it to will be the 3rd owner. The dress has not been dry cleaned. It will be shipped in a special dress bag for carrying. For wearing, I wanted a princess line silhouette, so I wore a large petticoat. You can wear it without a petticoat if you prefer. It's a size 9, but the waist has been slightly adjusted. I am 159 cm tall and weigh 45 kg. Please use this as a reference.
