 Rich, luscious creation by Annabelle, 24 Rue De Bourg, Lausanne, Switzerland...and labeled a "Haute Confection"....and indeed it is. The fabric and construction are simply amazing; fully lined, attached crinoline, the bodice is heavily constructed, boned and beautifully finished. The fabric is a background of warm cocoa brown with a basketweave pattern of golden-bronze metallic lame' threads...beautiful. This is understated elegance at its best.

Measures bust to 40", B-C cup, waist to 29", hips free. Length from shoulder to hem, 44", waist is slightly princess dropped, and shaped in the back. The attention to detail is impressive !
