“Dress shabbily and they remember the dress, Dress impeccably and they remember the woman” attributed to
Coco Ch*nel
Capture that early 1960s style in this stunning Aqua Blue beaded sheath! You would be the envy of Holly Go Lightly!
The entire top is beaded to form an empire waist. A shantung-type fabric in a beautiful aqua blue gracefully drapes the body. The fabric has the nubs and slubs that you see on real silk shantung. The scoop back is beaded on the top as well.
Wear it as is or cut it to more of a cocktail length – what’s clear is that the beauty of the dress is all about the top!
We estimate that the dress is a size 6 based on the dress form but please note measurements as follows
Bust: 35”
Waist: 30”
Hips: 36”
Length from top of shoulder: 56”
The dress is in excellent condition with a small stain on the lower side. No smells, tears or holes. The dress has a label “made in Hong Kong, British Crown Colony”.
Please ask any questions in advance as there are no returns. Any other items pictured in the listing are NOT INCLUDED but are available in my store. This listing is only for the Aqua Shantung Sheath Gown.
