It buttons down the front with rounded black glossy buttons and when done up has this great swing feel to it - like a military great coat but done as a cape

Alas it only has its Holt Renfrew tag that dates it to the early 60s

Each f the designs you see has been hand applied to the gown and donein a way that each seems like an applique with a 3D quality

So romantic and whimsical it will make a wonderful dress for summer events or even a less formal wedding gown
