[SOLD] Trovata Silk V-neck Dress

SOLD - congratulations Dorota!
Item: Trovata silk v-neck dress
Color/material: black, 100% silk
Size: size medium, fits true to size
Condition: brand new with tags, small snag on the skirt section which is not noticeable when being worn
Retail: $324, bought on sale for around $80 I think? from Nordstrom's Rack
Asking: $40, which includes USPS priority shipping to anywhere in the USA
Listing ends: First come first serve!

Beautiful and simple Trovata silk dress, with lots of interesting little details like little buttons on the side and a paneled flounce skrit. This dress is too big for me, even though I bought it so that it would have an oversized drapey fit, I never ended up wearing it. Perfect and versatile day to night dress!

About me: I am currently studying abroad in Copenhagen and will be going home in about 10 days. When I return, I will be signing my first apartment lease, which means my annual/never-ending closet purging will be more crucial than ever. Despite the fact that I have made a vow to not buy new clothes for a year, my closet is still the size of a small country, rather than the carefully curated selection of loved pieces that it should be. The UN climate conference has already started, and I can't help but feel guilty for my excess of consumerism over the past years. But what to do with all of the clothes I've amassed? Well, finding them new homes with people who will wear them well is about as good a sustainable model I can think of :)
special note: I am not returning to the states until Sunday, December 20th. That means the earliest I can ship anything is the next day, December 21st (but I will be quick about it!).
