This garment is sunwashed, sunwash creates variegated and uneven colors intentionally as part of its beauty. Colors may transfer, fade with time, and will vary from piece to piece.
Machine wash separately, to help prevent color transfer, in cold water on gentle cycle. Hang to dry.
I had purchased April's graphite cover-up on sale a couple of years ago, and although beautiful, I couldn't find the right dress to go with it. I was ready to buy fabric and just make something, but then this came to save the day. It goes beautifully with it, and the embroidery on both is complimentary. I love this dress for all its unusual design, and would be happy with it as-is, but I love it even more with the cover-up.
And by the way, this Fall/Winter selections are so stunning. This was just one of many.

Attractive and comfy

Love the fabric, the texture, the warm red color and the cotton lining. Ironing would remove the beauty texture. Fits well the slim ones. Lots of delicate work was invested in this one. It's a fine dress, handle it with love and care.
