This wonderful piece from Oleg Cassini is an absolute dream and begs to go dancing. It simply pops over the head and the easy shape and bias cut fabric settles over the body in a way that is infinitely flattering. The dress has a very simple cut - it is basically a chic little twenties inspired sheath but one that is densely covered with dangling strands of tube beads and sequins. The bodice has a flattering scoop neck and the back is also scooped a little lower. The beads that cover the dress are sewn on in little independent strands so create tremendous movement and a glossiness to the surface. They sit on a gold base and there is second layer of black silk chiffon under that so the dress has this great combination of beads on a light fabric - again giving it wonderful movement, drape and stretch. Very old Hollywood mixed with that perfect ease and sexiness of the eighties. Excellent condition.
