This blue dress is probably the most iconic dress worn by River Tam in Serenity.
Here's the write-ups from Propstore of London (pages no longer available) :
"River Maidenhead Bar Costume
A costume worn by River in the sci-fi adventure Serenity. This costume was worn by River in the Maidenhead Bar scene where she receives a subliminal message and attacks all the bar’s patrons. It consists of a short blue dress, with a sheer patterned blue dress worn layered over the top, a knitted black shrug garment to go on the arms and a pair of dark blue underpants. No sizes marked.
This was priced at $4,709."
Here are Propstore photos of River Tam's blue dress (probably a custom made design) :
