The Nine West dress is so pretty with a retro Marilyn Monroe vibe (it's reminiscent of the famous white dress she wore in Seven Year Itch but this has a full back rather than a halter and does not have pleats). It’s really difficult to capture a black dress in a photo so I’ve provided shots of different areas of the dress. The top is beautiful v-neck wrap style, and the waist is a tall band that has gathers, making it super flattering to the waistline. The whole thing is made of a silky stretchy knit. It is 47 inches long from shoulder to hem (which is midi on me because I am a short girl). Never worn.
