This is an elegant, very adequate dress for many occasions: theatre, dinners, parties... Combine it with a shawl and a small purse and you'll gather attention.Although, be very careful when choosing size. The fabric will NOT stretch at all, and if you are a person who gains weight easily, go with the larger size. If not, when putting it on, it is possible that the sewing (or the fabric) breaks.Other than that, it is a great piece for any wardrobe.
