This stunning vintage gown features a skirt of tiered flounces, and a bodice with dramatic rosette appliqué. Made in the 1970s, it was slightly tweaked by me and is entirely one-of-a-kind. The movement is incredible— flounces have special "horse hair"-like fibers in each edge to create the sculptural, wavy look. A velvet waistband creates harmony between the two distinct elements. The sheer chiffon sleeves allow some skin to peek through, for a romantic look— they are elasticized at the cuff for a billowing effect. The black fabric underneath the flounces and appliqué has an ever-so-slightly reddish tone to the black, creating dimension to the otherwise monochromatic look.
