This jacket has been with me for 5 years and has become a good friend, so I only want her to go to a true antique clothing lover. Also seen in the 1850-1920s Section. Just makes your jaw drop, it's so amazing. It's really a silver lame, but in various light, it gleams gold as you see. Clear beaded flower cluster design at the right breast which traveles down the front of the gown like a vine with beaded drops to the spot where the drap is held.
Rhinestones add a bit of extra sparkle.
Strapless with daring decolletage, stayed bodice and inner cinch waistband. Condition is Excellent though there is a bit of lame tarnishing and the beading could use a bit of tacking. Very small size doesn't fit my mannequin. Top of the line couture piece from the 1950's. Yes, this is museum quality.
