SILK! EXPRESS size 3/4 black off-the-shoulder full-length mermaid gown 100% silk

WHO DOESN’T LOVE THE FEEL OF SILK ON THE SKIN, SO COOL AND LUXURIOUS? AND WHEN IT’S THIS AFFORDABLE, WHY WEAR ANYTHING ELSE? THIS CHIC AND ELEGANT BLACK 100% SILK (POLYESTER LINING) OFF-THE-SHOULDER FULL-LENGTH MERMAID GOWN BY EXPRESS, SIZE 3/4, is gently pre-owned, in excellent condition. On the brand label, the Express brand name has been lined through with indelible marker (picture #10), and the fabric-and-care label has a puncture wound (picture #10) probably from a dry cleaner's tag, but it's otherwise free of defects or damage, with little sign of wear. In classic mermaid-gown styling, it fits closely to about mid thigh and flares below that. It has thin non-adjustable shoulder straps and is fully lined in black 100% polyester fabric. As is usually (always?) the case with fine silk garments, dry clean only is recommended. The stated size is 3/4, but prospective buyers are encouraged to compare the measurements with those of a dress that they know fits well prior to purchase. Measurements are: chest, pit to pit 17.75"; waist 15.75"; hips 17"; hemline 29"; length (in back, neckline to hem) 51.25". If you like the gown but not the price, don’t despair, I’m willing to negotiate. Make me an offer. At the estate sale where I acquired this gown, it was paired with a very nice black velvet bolero jacket (picture #9). It's a separate listing as PATRA PETITE size 6 black velvet bolero jacket. Make a bundle, and I'll offer a generous discount for a combined purchase.
