Blush rose zardosi net palazzo salwar kameez size 44 (XL) tall

Palazzo net special occasion salwar kameez

This dramatic embroidered net salwar kameez shades from honey to blush rose and is covered with beautifully intricate hand-embroidered zardosi, set crystal, and blush pearl seed beads. The short kameez has midriff darts and short sleeves. The net on the back of the kameez has the same shading and pattern as the front, but without the embroidered zardosi and beadwork. The pants-style salwar flares at the bottom, and the weight of the embroidery on the cuff makes it swing beautifully as you move. The waistband closes with a strong hook and eye. The kameez should fit someone with a body bust measurement from   40" (loose fit) to 42" (snug fit).

Condition: this appears to be new, never worn, but the short side zipper on the pants does not work (the zipper pull is stuck at the bottom). This could easily be replaced with a short series of hooks and eyes, which is another common way of closing the  side placket. This area is normally be covered by the kameez.
