Black White Stripe Velvet and Satin Gondolier Gown with Dangling Gems - S, 1960s
About the Item
With multiple textures, hanging beadwork and a riot of ¼” stripes, this gown has a lot going on but manages to get all of it just right. Best on a statuesque figure with sculpted shoulders, this gown reminds us of a piece that might be worn on a gondola during Carnevale, or at one of Truman Capote’s Black and White Balls.

Bodice features front princess seams and passementerie cording with hanging black beads at waist; gathered straight skirt with 10” velvet band and matching beaded passementerie at hem. Decorative 10” fixed bow with hidden snap at center back. Rear zipper closure with hook and eye at rear neck; fully lined in black acetate.
