1960s Nathan Strong Black Silk Beaded Gown
This is a stunning dress with an interesting mix of textures. The skirt is a puffed silk brocade that is cut to follow your curves and definitely has that old Hollywood starlet feel to it. It falls to the floor in a sleek column. This is topped by a simple scooped and sleeveless bodice that is densely covered with glossy black beads and sequins. The bodice is molded to fit the bust and the neckline is a soft rounded scoop. The back scoops quite low and the waist nips in. Excellent condition.
Fully lined in black silky rayon and closes with a back painted metal zipper. Note that it closes at the back properly but was too small to do so on the mannequin
