Snooty Hooty Black Crepe & Gold Lamé Cocktail Dress, C.1980

About the Item

This glitzy little number lies somewhere between 1970's disco and 1980's glam. It is from a fabulous boutique that existed in Atlanta, once upon a time, the Snooty Hooty. The black silk crepe dress zips up the back and buttons at the top of the black and gold lamé ruched bodice. The bodice is reminiscent of an abstract animal print with leopard style spots throughout. Lined with a silky polyester fabric excluding the semi-transparent arms and upper bodice. Add a great set of heels and something fabulous at the ears for a stylish cocktail look.
