I purchased this a few years ago and wore it only once, so I'm selling it because I don't wear it anymore. ○ This is a layered dress with a back half-zip fastener. ○ The zipper has some discoloration, but it can be raised and lowered without any problems. ⚠️ There is a scratch on the back style where the fabric got caught in the zipper. It's all black, so it's not very noticeable.
