Description
This unique black wool dress was designed by Oscar de la Renta for his Fall 2010 collection. This lovely evening dress is so much prettier in person because unfortunately, it's always difficult to capture the unique elements of black dresses in photos.
The body of this great dress is a luxe black wool and it has amazing raw silk edges with cotton sparkle fringe trim. The collar is a deep v-neck with a chelsea collar and the sleeves are elbow length, depending on height. The skirt of the dress is pleated from the hips down with box pleats that are separated by pretty sheer black silk panels.
The dress closes with a center back seam metal zipper and a hook and eye and it is completely lined in silk. The style number is 8N682 and it was made in Italy. The shell of the dress is made of 100% Wool, the trim is 39% Cotton, 10% Acetate, 20% Nylon, 16% Ramie and 9% Polyester, with 100% Silk lining.
Labeled size 8, and we estimate this would best fit a modern size 8 as well.

Measuring & Fit Guide
We offer a large selection of designers and manufacturers that span the 20th and early 21st century. Sizing varies greatly, so we have outlined our measuring and size estimating process.
The best way to know if a vintage item will fit you is to take a garment that fits you well, similar to the one you are interested in purchasing, and measure it the way we measure ours.
We lay all garments flat and measure as follows*:
| DRESSES | PANTS | |
|
BUST - under arm to under arm across the front and then double that measurement. |
Measure the WAISTBAND, widest part of the HIPS, widest part of the THIGH on one leg and width of the CUFF, then double those measurements |
|
|
WAIST - find the smallest part of the garment if there isn't an obvious seam for the waist and measure across and then double that measurement. |
LENGTH - Measure from the top of the waistband to the bottom of the cuff along the side seam. | |
| HIPS - Find the largest part of the hip area and measure flat, then double that measurement. | RISE - Measure from the crotch to the top of the waistband. | |
| LENGTH - from the nape of the neck or the top of the shoulders, depending on the style of garment. We will measure to the waist when applicable, so that you can determine if it will fit your torso, and then a waist down measurement. | INSEAM - Measure from the crotch to the bottom of the cuff along the inside seam. | |
|
SLEEVES - measure from the top of the shoulder seam to the end of the sleeve. When we think that the arm opening is particularly small, we will provide that measurement as well.** |
*Fabrics with stretch will have some give, we will try to mention the range of measurements that will fit comfortably.
**With dolman sleeves, the size is an estimation based on the waist as the body seamlessly joins the sleeve. 
Feel free to email us with specific questions about specific measurements that we may not have included that you need to know in order to feel confident about your purchase. If you have a particularly long torso, short legs, long arms, etc.. we can help you determine whether or not a garment will work for your body.
