Sheer Indian Black Silk and Gold Bead Kaftan Coat - M-L, 1980s
About the Item
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!
Collarless sheer beaded kaftan with 2 ½’ slits both sides; 1 ½” bead-crusted trim around neckline, down front opening and around hemline and cuffs. Lightly padded shoulders; single hook and eye closure at throat with no other closures of any kind. Fully lined in black poly chiffon (but remains very sheer).

View AllSwirling Black Jersey Disco Day Dress with Plunging Bodice – M, 1960s
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. And though it is as light, wrinkle-free and sensuous as silk jersey, its easy care fabric means it is machine washable and supremely packable. 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. Unlined.
