The dress is a long, off-white garment with thin red stripes and a repeating pattern of small flowers or other motifs. The dress has a square neckline and thin straps. Long sleeves are gathered at the cuffs. A gathered waist seam separates the dress into two sections. The dress is on a white mannequin with a smooth surface and no head or feet. The mannequin's hands are positioned at its sides, with the palms facing forward. The background is a plain beige color. The dress and artist are titled "Dress".
