Blumarine S/S 1990 Vintage Blue Pearl Halter Dress in size XS-M.

Presenting an incredibly elegant and well documented vintage style from Blumarine by Anna Molinari. The dress is made from an incredibly elastic material that follows the body's curves meticulously and snatches you up completely. The halter style top is twisted in the neck, and decorated with different pearl-like embellishments in various colours and sizes. The design of the dress does not include a slit at the bottom of the skirt, so this is more of a piece to wear than to parade in. But one thing is sure, this is definitely a dress that will leave a lasting impression.

Size: The size tag is missing, but would best fit a size S or M with a (slightly) bigger/wider chest than the model. Please refer to the measurements.

Colour: Blue - the color of the dress as shown on the living model is the closest to a color match. On the mannequin it’s slightly darker than in real life. 

Composition: The composition tag is missing, but it's made from a synthetic, but stretchy fabric.

Condition: In good vintage condition - the dress has a few discoloration spots as shown in the pictures. Due to the shimmer of the dress’s fabric, it’s not very visible when worn luckily. In addition to that, the elastic in the halter is 35 years old and for its age, still quite well. But at some point, and depending on the cup size of the wearer, the elastic might need some renewing. Other than that in amazing condition for its age. 

Measurements:
Length (from mid halter diagonally straight to the bottom): 134cm - 52.8 inches
Bust (armpit to armpit): 34cm - 13.4 inches
Waist: 28cm - 11 inches
Hips: 33cm - 13 inches
*Fabric is very stretchy
