This cool viscose/acetate (washable) slip dress looks like a wrinkly taffeta in an iridescent blue brown color, with rust orange and brown velvet accents. Though EU 40 is supposed to be size 8, I'd say it fits more like a 4 since only 14.5 inches under chest area. Mid length, about 42 inches shoulder to hem with adjustable shoulder straps. No defects or wear in the fabric, may be possible to iron or steam wrinkles out if prefer a smoother look!
