This one-of-a-kind vintage embellished crochet dress was custom-made by hand in the 1960s. It's constructed of a light blue crochet with a metallic sheen, and hand-embellished all over with bead drops. The crochet's edges bleed over onto the wide bateau neckline, creating a scalloped edge. The dress is fitted through the bodice and has a column shape in the front, with more volume and length in the back, for a cape-like effect. It's lined in a pale nude lining, except for the sleeves which are unlined. Closes with a zipper in the side seam.

Great vintage condition overall. Note that this piece was made by hand so irregularities are to be expected. There are one or two small spots of discoloration but it's less noticeable due to the texture of the fabric and all the of the embellishment. There is no notable loss to embellishment.
