Vintage Hand-Beaded Pink Silk Cocktail Dress | Custom Couture Formal | MCM |

Apologies for the cover AI representation of this dress, but I wanted to show it on a live model and this was the closest I could get. 🤷‍♀️ This exquisite vintage dress appears to be custom made, featuring extensive hand beading across the neckline with a separate attached beaded petticoat. This half slip has 4 inches of hand beaded detail (on the same silk) that hangs beneath the hemline of the main dress. The fabric shows characteristics of slub silk, giving the dress a soft luster and subtle texture. Beading includes glass seed beads, bugle beads, and pearl accents, all hand-applied in floral motifs. This level of craftsmanship suggests atelier or couture-style construction. I don’t see any missing or even any obviously loose beads. The beading is three-dimensional with some of the beaded raised to resemble petals. There are three hooks at the back neckline that will need new loops sewn in. This dress is in overall beautiful condition. Again, I am guessing on fabric content, but confident in my details. Dress only, belt is AI generated and is not included.
