About the Item

Full of opulent original details, rendered in the most luxurious fashion, this rare 1920's piece is a beauty to behold and never again find. The rounded neckline of the dress, is framed by a border of gold sequin embellishments, which join a central wide sequin panel that runs along the centre front of the dress. The slim shoulder straps, embellished with gold sequins, set off the sleeveless cut of the bodice, which are edged with gold sequins along each armhole, framing the undulating gold sequin embellished pattern. The elegant straight cut of the dress, is accented by a wide decorative waist panel, which is embellished with gold sequins, silver glass beads, iridescent grey sequins and clear iridescent sequins in linked circular pattern. The flared A line cut of the skirt, is set off by a matching decorative panel along the hemline, in a linked circular pattern, framed by undulating gold sequins, and a slim panel of silver bugle beads, and claw set rhinestones. Finished with a simple single row of sequins along the hemline, this incredible dress is sure to be a favourite in your collection. This dress is sheer, and may need to be worn with a dress slip to conceal ones modesty.
