Full of opulent original details, rendered in the most luxurious fashion of sequins upon black tulle, this rare 1920's piece is a beauty to behold.
The deep rounded neckline is framed by slim shoulder straps which are in turn decorated with a border of sequins in a zig zag pattern in shades of fuchsia, blue, green and aged gold, set against the dark silver sequin base. The wide arm holes, accent the elegant straight cut of the tabard, whilst drawing the eye to the pointed colourful sequin patterns along either side of the waistline, where the tabard slits begin.Each side of the tabard design along the skirt line is embellished with a border of black sequins surrounding paisley patterns rendered in silver sequins. Finished with a pointed colourful sequin design along the hemlines along the front and back, to match those found along either side of the waistline. This dress is constructed on a base of tulle and has an element of sheerness to it.
