Black Beaded Evening Dress

Sophisticated and elegant, a black on black beaded evening dress from Malcolm Starr is a glamorous example of the style of the late 1950's.

The figure flattering scoop neckline and slightly raised fitted waistline emphasize curves, while the lean silhouette of the skirt emphasizes the length making the wearer appear taller. The sleeveless black crepe dress is smothered with black bugle beads marching in straight rows and swirling in curved designs. There are clusters of three dimensional beaded flowers. The waistline is horizontally beaded above a gently gathered narrow skirt. There is a deep kick pleat at the left side of the skirt for ease of movement.

There is a metal zipper at the center back of the dress, as well as an interior waistband with hook and eye closure. The dress is fully lined in black silk.

In pristine condition, all of the beading is intact on this very glamorous and wearable dress from Malcolm Starr.
