The twin of this dress was shown on the runway and worn by Mounia. It was also featured in the ad campaign on Iman. It comes with a matching blue sash. It has incredible volume. On the photos where the skirt is fuller I added a crinoline underneath to show the volume it could achieve.

The zipper is currently broken on this dress. So if used it would have to be replaced. There is also very light minor foxing on some of the front ruffles near the seam of the back waist

Current Loan Replacement Value: $6500 USD
