c.2000s Issey Miyake "Fete" Pleat Tunic or Mini designer-claude-montana If you love it in

If you love it in the photos you will be  astonished when you actually get to see the level of construction and work that would have been done to so densely hand apply all the tiny sequins by hand to cover the dress with this amount of coverage

It cinches in at the waist  with a flat piping detail and then curves over the hips into a narrow curve to the floor

The crepe is an ink black with not one but two of Celia's prints - one on the top payer and one on the bottom

Waist: stretches 16-18" comfortably measured flat across from side seam to side seam
