This is a size 18, not 18W. The description when purchased this from Nordstrom called this a Red & Navy Plaid, however, it's a very dark navy (I've spent a lot of time debating with myself on if it's black or navy). The front sits higher on the chest with a V back. Midi length. Beautiful condition -- only worn once for a half a day. Great dress to pick up for the fall season and going into the holidays!
