  • 1930's Couture Black Sequin Silk-Chiffon Puff Sleeve Backless Bias-Cut Deco Gown

    A breathtaking couture custom-made sheer silk chiffon gown from Old Hollywood era of glamour. The bodice is a seductive ruched neck, cut-out plunge with dramatic mini puff-sleeves. This gorgeous bias-cut design flows into a unique backless construction. I love the sparking sequins and colorful jewel workmanship which really gives the garment so much depth and texture! This figure flattering garment accentuates the bust, skims the hip and flares out below the knee in such a flirty design. It is impeccably seamed and on the level of modern day couture.

    Measurements
    Bust: 34-35 inches
    Waist: 26 inches
    Hips: up to 38 inches
    Total Length: 58 inches

    This custom-made couture evening dress is in excellent wearable condition with no rips, stains or holes. Perfectly working side metal-hook closures. All jeweled beadwork in place. Only sign of age is one minor repair by the bottom hemline. This gown is over 80 years old and is truly spectacular. I wouldn't be surprised if this creation was by a famous designer, as it has all the hallmarks of a couture piece from this era.
