About the Item

This 80’s Torrente two-piece ensemble is the perfect balance between being playful and sophisticated. Constructed in refined cherry-red “Calais” lace, this mini dress features a slim bodice and flares out at the waist into a tiered ruffled skirt. Fully lined for giving coverage under the sheer lace, the dress closes with a concealed zip on the left side. The matching evening bolero jacket is embellished with a silk ribbon around the ruffle collar, the cuffs and the waist and fastens with two buttons. Incredibly feminine and flattering, this dress suit is the perfect choice for parties and cocktail events. Fits approx. : US 2-6 / FR 36-38 This item has been professionally cleaned, pressed & carefully inspected by a couture-trained seamstress before being sold.
