Sue Wong Vintage Y2K Beaded Silk Chiffon Dress

About the Item

This vintage Sue Wong beaded silk chiffon dress is so classic Sue Wong, from the bias-cut silk chiffon to the artful beadwork. It is from the designer's "Nocturne" label. Sue Wong began her fashion career as a designer for other popular brands, eventually leaving to start her own business, notably designing one-of-a-kind dresses with details cut from vintage clothing particularly from the 1920s and 1930s. This dress's chest has cups built in the interior, and the bias-cut is super flattering, all creating an hourglass shape with the help of the handkerchief hemline. Godets below the drop waist create this fluttering look at the asymmetrical hem, giving romantic fairy vibes. In addition to the masterful cut of the dress, Sue Wong really used trompe l'œil beading and embellishment to create a flattering shape. The straps are adjustable, which is so helpful in getting the perfect fit. Measurements: This will best fit a size Small but please refer to below measurements. The bias-cut naturally stretches AND shrinks with the curves of the body, which allows for flexibility in sizing. Shown on a size 2. Chest: 33.5" (cups are built in so some flexibility) Waist: about 27" with additional stretch from bias cut up to about 28.5" Hips: up to 36" Length: 44.5" down center front to longest points to asymmetrical hem; shorter parts are more like 35" (length is adjustable thanks to adjustable straps) Great vintage condition, with minor wear commensurate with age. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please send a message for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final. *IF YOU REQUIRE EXPRESS SHIPPING (domestic or international), please contact me for my best quote! Same-day or next-day delivery (or pickup) is in most cases available in the NYC area. @VERYBREEZY — Follow along on Instagram for exclusive access to new vintage arrivals

1960s Embellished Wiggle Dress
Located in New York, NY
VERY BREEZY presents: This is the dream vintage wiggle dress! The shape is so perfectly 1960s, from the way its fitted through the hips to the bateau neckline— so flattering and the perfect amount of sexy! This piece was sourced in Italy, although it was made in the US. It's embroidered all over with sequins in a squiggling formation. The paillettes are of such a great quality (nothing like the cheap sequins that are so commonplace in modern garments). A small slit in the back back makes it easy to move.
