This Bill Blass dress is a clever combination of a day dress silhouette mixed with all the glam and glitz of a full on sequinned evening piece. It is a classic shift dress that is densely covered in silver sequins. Mixed in with the sequins are strips of silver that give the dress an even greater 3D effect. The sleeves are capped and the bodice cut to glide over your shape. The waist sis seamed but not severely nipped in and the skirt flows over the hips and gently flares out as it nears the hem. It is elegance and high glamour rolled into one. The full on sequin coverage gives it a decent weight but its not so heavy that it uncomfortable to wear. I love that the sequins have a more pewter cast to them which keeps the dress firmly on the side of elegance. It's a good wearable size too. Excellent condition
