Halston Fall 1980 Black Chiffon Beaded Firework Dress designer-fendi Made of a silk chiffon

Made of a silk chiffon crepe it drapes beautifully and it is cut on the bias so moves to follow your shape when you slip it on

Here we have a beautiful embroidered muslin that appears to be all hand work

The dress skims over the bust and then curves in at the waist

This particular dress has the added provenance that its twin was worn by Nancy Reagan on two separate occasions

Absolutely gorgeous 1950s dress with superb detailing
