~The long sleeved red 80's dress has V plunge back with zipper. It is a wide cut neckline so near off the shoulder styling. It has the hemline that works so well to give it this sassy look, with it being higher in front, longer in back. See measurements so you know what length it will be on you. It is very pretty on its own as well as re-purposed as shown.
~Beneath red dress I have added a black skirt with a tulle hemline. This shows a little in front since red dress has the shorter front hem. It is popular for the saloon look to take one side of the dress up too. In this case, you could tuck it under the bow and pin it. This gives the illusion of extra layers and exposed the black underskirt for a great contrast. If you take the black skirt up with it, you can show off a cute little pair of boots and fishnet stockings to take this a step further.
~I am also throwing in the lace fingerless costume gloves, and the corset at no extra charge to complete this sassy ensemble.
Mannequin measures 38x31x40 and as you can see, the dress does not full zip up. The corset would hide that fact somewhat should it be comfortable enough to wear it this way
