DETAILS: This is one of those vintage little black dresses that come alive on the body - it's so chic, very Audrey Hepburn, sleekly elegant. The dress has a fitted body conscious silhouette with a plain rounded neckline, perfect for showing off fabulous pin or necklace. The high waist is accented by a band of silky flat braid. Vertical darts continue the close fit down to the natural waist before they open up into soft pleating that flows into the straight skirt. There are side seam handwarmer pockets and a 6. 5" back center kick pleat for ease in walking.
