Original self fabric buckle belt at the waist, and metal side zip fastening.
Wonderful full skirt, with a multi-layered pleat detail from the back of the waist, fanning out to the hem (see second close-up picture).

Comments

In super condition overall, just evidence that two tiny darts have been taken out at the waist on very close inspection. Unlabelled, probably dressmaker made gown.
