1960s Icy Beaded Shift Dress S

Did someone say more sparkle? This icy white shift dress with all over beading and embroidery will have you absolutely glittering. A straight cut shift style made in a swirly, baroque style lace, it is fully embellished with tiny faux pearls, clear iridescent sequins, and silvery seed beads giving it a multifaceted shimmery feel. With additional beading on the cuffs and at the collar as well as on the magnificent detachable necktie, it is a gilded fantasy bringing to mind the glittery snowflakes of the Nutcracker and the Ice Queen of Narnia -- with a mod '60s flair of course. By label Colt Orient, made in Hong Kong, circa 1960s.

• Size S (marked 10, see measurements)
