SAKS FIFTH AVENUE Made in England, 1970s evening dress, black jersey knit and sequins, 40s style dress
vintage evening dress gown from SAKS FIFTH AVENUE Made in England.
Black jersey knit and sequins 1940s style gown.
When I first saw the dress I thought "1940s". Then I saw the Saks label which is way more current than the 40s and the fabrication speaks 70s.
I really wish it still had it's designer label. It is giving me Jean Muir vibes. Does have the England tag, but I really can't say. Exquisite nonetheless.
Fabric is really slinky, a bit sheer and quite stretchy. Look closely and you can see the glossy mannequin through the bodice.
Fitted bodice with deep scoop neckline and back.
Side zipper is hand stitched.
Sleeves are deep cut, full and puffed at the shoulders then tapering to a slim wrist.
Smooth yoke at the hips, accented with bands of sequins.
Skirt is full circle and falls with an uneven hem.
Amazing dress.
Excellent condition.
MEasures:
A bit of stretch
34+ bust
26+ waist
35 hips - no stretch here due to the bands of sequins
57 long
