I bought this a few years ago and wore it twice. Some photos may look gray, but the color is black. The fabric is a firm, sturdy material, which allows the A-line to spread straight out, creating a beautiful silhouette. I am 165cm tall, and the length is just above the knee, as shown in the last photo. It was perfect for special occasions like farewell parties and weddings. I imagine it as an Audrey Hepburn-style black dress.
