Hello,
This is a breathtaking lilac pink French flapper beaded dress from the 1920s, probably the most outstanding piece of craftsmanship I've ever owned and a museum worthy dress!
The design is truly exquisite, it is made of silk chiffon embellished with pink lilac and silver beads. The dress is entirely covers with beads and fringed at the exception of the middle front bust where the embellishment design makes the illusion of a deep V plunging neckline to reveal some skin through the chiffon fabric.
NB: the color looks more lilac pink in real than on the pictures (color on 4th picture is closer to reality)
Features:
-beaded cameo floral embellishment
-sleeveless
-scoop neckline
-knee length
-no closure or opening
-Label: none
-Size : please check measurements
-Fabric : chiffon silk
Condition: Good condition considering its age and the weight of the embellishments, a 3cm tear under right armpit, a stain located under the 1st row of fringes, a 1,5 cm hole located under the 2nd row of fringes. Slight greying, fading of the fabric on some areas. Imperfections hardly visible, the tear under the armpit could easily be fixed with a patch of chiffon fabric. Otherwise the fabric is still sturdy and strong, no bead loss noticeable.
Wearable for special occasion with extra care.
Please contact for pictures of the flaws prior to buying.
