Opulent Onyx Beaded Party Dress M

Wow! This sophisticated black dress is covered with some of the most ornate beaded and sequined embellishment we've seen. The incredibly light and delicate black silk is ebroidered all over with layers of black sequins and beading in an elaborate, textured floral pattern. A classic semi-straight cut style that skims the hips, it has bracelet length sleeves and a fun, kicky car-wash hem for movement (that is also entirely covered in sequins). Elegant and opulent, the black on black sequins keep it relatively subtle while still catching lots of light and lots of eyes; pair is with silver, gold, or black. By label Swee Lo, made in India circa 1980s.

• Size M (marked M 8-10, see measurements)
• 100% silk, airy amd sheer, fully sequined and beaded giving the dress a substantial, heavy feel

• Hook and zipper down the back
• Great condition, the placket over the back zipper may need a hook or tape to stay flat, otherwise no visible flaws
