This dress uses the same base to create 3 costume pieces. Version A has a mermaid shape and ruffles along the hem and along the off the shoulder neckline - a flamenco type thing. Version B has a fishtail shape, a big bow on the back, and a belt at the waist (Very Marylin-Monroe-singing-Diamonds-Are-A-Girl's-Best-Friend). Version C is a fringed flapper dress.
