Art Deco Lame Evening
Gown
Sensational color, graphic Art Deco design and an exquisite cut
make this late 1920's dress so exceptional. It is a testament to
the design innovation of this period.
The combination
of orchid, navy blue, aquamarine and metallic gold lame is
unusual and striking. The Art Deco design is worked to great
advantage in this intricately cut vintage gown. The V shaped
seam at the bodice is repeated below the waistline and down the
center back of the skirt. Arched seams lend a flattering line
to the hips and create fullness and length at the back. The
bodice of the dress is lined in deep purple georgette, and all
of the seams are hand finished.
In excellent
condition, this dress comes from a prestigious Manhattan
estate. In true 1920's style it just slips on over the head, so
please check the measurements carefully.
