Balenciaga 80s Vintage Peplum Dress RED & Black M

$ 65.00

What Alexis or Krystal might wear to a corporate takeover! Stand-up collar, padded shoulders, modified batwing sleeves. The front waistline dips slightly in the center, echoed by the notched peplum with its faux pocket welts. Intricate looking double inverted kick pleat in back.

Size:I can't really decipher the label - I 'm posting pics if you care to try, but please - consider the measurements.

Fabric/Colors

Medium weight herringbone weave, using gleaming dark red and matte black. The weave is somewhat loose, and all the inside fabric edges are overlocked, so I'm hesitant to snip fabric for a fiber burn test. I am guessing a blend of wool and silk or rayon.

Tag

Balenciaga, Paris

Closures

There's a short zipper in the back of the skirt that is hidden by the buttons that close the bodice and peplum.

Condition

Very good to excellent. I don't see any stains, holes, or tears. A close inspection reveals three small snags, two on the right sleeve and one on the left.
