This has beautiful details - a contrasting hem and contrasting fabric on the interior of the pockets. The waistline has a drawstring, tying at both sides for adjustability The length is nice and long - hitting typically around the lower calf. The sleeves are full length, with a two button closure. The silk is flowy and light - it can be layered with a slip or stockings and a tee for colder days. This is such a stunning piece.
