The fabric is synthetic and quite thick, so the dress feels like it came from a costume store. The flap of black fabric that runs in between the front folds stops short of the bottom hem and is unlined and unattached underneath, so when it flips up the bare white reverse side and stiching are easily visible. The folds of the dress are interesting, but the poor quality of the fabric prevents them from hanging right. I think RTR needs some additional photographs for this one.
