Marc Jacobs Late 90s Sz 8 Gold Metal Link Column Evening Gown Runway Dress Gown
By Marc Jacobs
Located in San Diego, CA
Rare late 1990s–early 2000s Marc Jacobs gold metal-link vintage evening gown featuring a fluid cowl neckline and long, slinky column silhouette that skims the body like liquid metal. Crafted from a true metallic link textile (not standard lamé jersey), the dress catches the light from every angle, evoking iconic late-90s runway and red carpet glamour. Labeled Marc Jacobs, size 8. Unlined and semi-sheer due to the open metal-link construction. There are several areas of separation and loss within the links toward the lower skirt and hem (see close-up photos). Priced accordingly and ideal for collectors, stylists, designers, or anyone comfortable working with specialty textiles. Restoration / Styling Ideas (for buyers): • Have a skilled tailor or costume restorer re-link and stabilize damaged areas using fine wire or matching metallic thread from the reverse. • Shorten or create a high side slit to remove or disguise heavier damage at the hem while keeping the original column line. • Add a nude or tonal slip underneath for coverage and to support the metal links. • Embrace the existing flaws and intentionally distress further for an editorial, deconstructed look—very in line with late-90s / Y2K runway styling. A rare archival-worthy Marc Jacobs piece with incredible stage, red carpet, or editorial potential. ⸻ Size & Measurements Labeled Size: 8 Measurements: 38 inch bust 34 inch waist 42 inch hips 63 inches from top back shoulder seam to hem Key Features • Authentic Marc Jacobs main line, c. 1998–2002 • True gold metal-link textile with diagonal rib effect • Draped cowl neckline; sleek column silhouette • Semi-sheer, lightweight, high-impact shine • Visible link breaks and snags; priced for condition and restoration potential • Exceptional piece for collectors, stylists, or runway-inspired eveningwear ⸻ Marc Jacobs 90s gown, Marc Jacobs metal link dress, vintage Marc Jacobs...
