If you have a red carpet event planned, this is the dress to wear. Glamor, style and elegance is to be had in this soft, soft black velvet rhinestone and beaded evening gown. You'll feel like Hollywood royalty.
Cut on the bias, this velvet gown is form fitting and flattering. The sheer top gives it the illusion of being a strapless dress with a plunging back so popular in the 30's and again today.
The top which measures 34/36 inches is trimmed with rhinestones and silver bugle beads around the neckline and then down the front in an art deco design. The back is breathtaking with a plunging beaded and rhinestone decoration that goes nearly 13 inches down the back. The sheer sleeves are full for 16 inches to just above the elbow where the sleeve narrows and a rhinestone and bugle bead decoration starts. The narrow sleeves end at the wrist with 4 buttons and a ruffle.

The front of the gown is slightly gathered and closes at the waist with snaps and hooks and eyes. The skirt is form fitting until just above the knee approximately 18 inches from the hem where it flairs. The back is slightly longer than the front for a completely regal effect. The dress is 56 inches long from neckline to hem. The measurements are 34/36 inches from armhole to armhole; waist 27/38 inches and the hip measurement is approximately 34/36 inches.
There is some minor bead loss but it does not detract from the gown. I have rarely had a vintage gown in this good condition. It is completely wearable and will make you feel like a queen. If you are a collector or have a red carpet event, this gown is not to be missed.
