Sheer Indian Black Silk and Gold Bead Kaftan Coat - M-L, 1980s

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! Collarless sheer beaded kaftan...

By Edith Flagg
Located in Tucson, AZ
If you had to choose ONE dress to wear for the rest of your life, choose this one. Its universally flattering cut accentuates even the smallest bustline while the swirling skirt (over ten feet!) skims over the hips and falls gracefully to the knee for dramatic movement.

A wardrobe workhorse, this dress can take you from day to night, Studio 54 to the Ritz Paris, and brunch to boardroom. Long sleeve swing dress with plunging neckline and front and rear princess seams from underarm to hem. Gently gathered inverted “V” seam at bust. Rear nylon zipper closure with top hook and eye.
