CLOSURES: Six large flat mother-of-pearl buttons down the front of the bodice, ending about 6" below the waist. There is a hook & eye at the waist, and a pair of snaps at the neckline, hidden by the buttoned roll collar. There are thread belt loops but no belt. I have shown the dress in some photos with a belt from my closet - it is not included with purchase.
