This incredible 1980’s gown is pure high-glamour drama, crafted from rich emerald green silk and covered in elaborate hand-beaded detailing. The fitted, floor-length silhouette is beautifully streamlined, allowing the extraordinary beadwork to take center stage! The halter-style bodice features a high, sculptural neckline that wraps around the neck and opens into a dramatic keyhole at the center chest. Heavily embellished scrollwork sweeps symmetrically across the bust in silver, deep green and black glass bugle and seed beads, accented by dimensional faceted green stones that catch the light beautifully. The ornate motif continues around the neckline and across the upper back, creating an almost jeweled collar effect. Throughout the body, long emerald bugle beads are arranged in an abstract, organic pattern that follows the length of the gown and emphasizes its sleek silhouette. The back is equally impressive, with dense silver and black beadwork forming an elaborate symmetrical design that trails down the center before transitioning into the scattered green beading of the skirt. A truly spectacular example of 1980s eveningwear—bold, glamorous and incredibly detailed, with a jewel-toned palette that feels especially luxurious!
Measurements: Bust 32”, Waist 26”, Hips 36”, Shoulder to Hem 61”
