Wonderful Bill Blass maxi gown takes your basic black and makes it quite fabulous. The use of this front silhouette with the ruffly and the tie halter is a favorite for Blass and one that is hard to beat. It is very flattering on a girl - it elongates the silhouette and gives a wonderful goddess feel. The dress is made of a good weight jersey and is very fluid and drapes perfectly. The skirt is long and lean with a front slit for ease of wear and a flash of leg. The top drapes beautifully when worn and the back is low enough to be sexy bit not so low that you cannot wear an undergarment. Excellent condition!
