Sometimes that little black dress that you can pop on and it is the perfect marriage of ease, sophistication and yet still have that pow factor is a hard thing to find. This wonderful piece from the fifties just might be a contender. Off the body it seems pretty but inconsequential, but once on, it has a way of hugging the body that is infinitely flattering. A very simple cut it is basically a chic sheath with a nipped in waist. The bodice has a flattering scoop neck and the back is also scooped a little lower. The skirt cut long and lean. The entire dress is completely covered in hand placed sequins in a glossy black. To this are 8 scalloped bands of seed bead fringing that give the dress movement and a bit if sass. I love the way it gleams in the light! Very old Hollywood and in excellent condition. Fully lined in a silky black rayon, it closes with a back metal zipper.
