vintage evening dress by ADELE SIMPSON
1980s Sheer Black cocktail party dress, Batwing 

This dress is made out of the most amazing fabric. Whisper thin and sheer, and unlined.
Bodice is cut in a dolman style with batwing sleeves that are ruched at the shoulders for a sumptuous drape. Strong shoulder pads support the ruching.
Same ruching is at the wrists of the long straight sleeves.
Wide cummerbund waist is ruched heavily. This gives the dress structure and this is the only area that is not sheer.
Keyhole back with one button at the back of the neck.
Back zipper on the skirt portion of the dress only. Above that there are some elastic loops and buttons.
Skirt is a slight a-line and unlined.

Excellent condition.
