An iconic beauty to behold, this original 1960's gold lurex dress, set off by accordion pleats and gold braiding along the neckline, is a true piece of fashion history.
The high collared neckline, fastens along the left hand side with press studs and hook and eye fastenings. The collar is accented by pleated and gathered edgings along the top and bottom, framing a simple gold lurex panel. The elegant racer back cut of the dress sets off the sleeveless design, which draws the eye to the magnificent A line silhouette of the dress, which showcases gold lurex in an incredible accordion pleat throughout. The dress is lined in a fitted blush pink rayon.
