Convertible Yellow Floral Circle Dress w Rhinestone-Studded Shelf Bust-S, 1950s
About the Item
Wearable with a halter or strapless neckline, this romantic sundress would be the perfect ensemble for a breezy garden party or summer wedding. Ideal for larger busts, the ample shelf bustline also features a rhinestone-studded under-layer that peeks out for added interest. The front center of the full skirt is slightly shorter than the sides and even longer at the back for extra perceived volume and balance.
Strapless or halter neck circle dress with graduated hemline and pleated shelf bust; rhinestone-center daisies along sweetheart bustline. Flexible boning at rear bodice; self-piped waistline. Side metal zipper closure with top hook and eye; hanging loops. Fully lined in ivory muslin with extra rayon slip layer in skirt; free-moving muslin lining is deliberately longer than dress in certain areas for added dimension.

Sheer Indian Black Silk and Gold Bead Kaftan Coat - M-L, 1980s
Located in Tucson, AZ
Halfway between a kaftan and a maxi coat, this sheer topper makes up in glamour what it lacks in warmth. The repeating floral pattern consists of clear bugle beads that catch and reflect light, while the hollow gold balls at each flower's center create evening-worthy shimmer. This single garment has the power to elevate the humblest outfit and would be a perfect travel or resort piece; it could even be worn as a bathing suit cover up!
