Sleeveless black dress, with long side-slits. Front of skirt and around both shoulder-holes are thick sections of fabric with orange geometric designs on a brownish-red background, covered with small white beads and circular mirrors. Thin bands of red with black repeating designs border the beaded areas, and also create a V-shape design at the neck. Five small embroidered designs with mirrors decorate the front of the dress. The back is plain with exception to two small layered half-circles, sewn at the top, centre of the back.
