Beautiful beaded silver sheer mini dress short sleeves from the 1950’s. Collectors item. Zips up the back with silver metal zipper. Such a stunning piece. Price has been reduced because it needs to be re-lined and several mesh connections need to be mended back together or tacked. Not a big deal I just don’t have time or patience to mess with it. Moody floral bead pattern. This dress is a true relic of the past and is very delicate. It is a good skeleton to use for recreating or restoring a vintage replica or restoring it to its original vintage state. The mesh and lining have several variations in the fabric with separation and threadbare holes etc. it needs excessive overhaul to be wearable again. A project for a skilled seamstress or Hollywood producer production or movie set wardrobe costume designer . It’s utterly amazing that it still even exists in its current state.

cbadeen @timelessfashon I haven’t been able to identity the fabric type for sure but it looks and feels like a woven silk linen blend maybe organza but it has some aging and I feel it needs to be re-lined or the lining could be completely removed and the shell could be worn over a cami slip

cbadeen @timelessfashon there is no tag but my friend that was here tonight said the way it’s made looks like custom couture for runway. He’s a 70yr old, gay hairdresser and former drag queen so he knows a lot about fashion from that era. Tomorrow I can ask him who he thinks the designer might’ve been.
