vintage 1970s evening dress,
DARNELL OF LONDON, Designer Orange beaded chiffon gown,
Long sleeves & High neck
Incredible dress.
Fabric is a combination of a sturdy crepe like fabric for the bodice, with a silk chiffon skirt.
Colors are an ecru on the bodice and a burnt orange on the skirt.
White and gold beads, with pink sequins embellish the bodice.
Bodice is fitted with a dropped empire waist.
High neck.
Raglan shoulders and long straight sleeves.
Back metal zipper.
Skirt is yards and yards of flowing chiffon with an uneven hem and an a-line lining.
Fully lined.
Very good condition. Cleaned and steamed. VERY minor bead loss. A few repairs to the skirt that get lost in the fullness. Skirt is very long and full so if you need to hem that would go away.
