Unreal 1920s hand beaded and painted flatter dress covered in exquisite Greco-Egyptian style motifs. This piece is frankly nothing short of a miracle- from start to finish, this dress was created as a piece of wearable art. The base of the dress is a cotton bobbinet that was carefully stenciled and then painted by hand to create the contrasting white and soft blue color blocking. After dry, the material was then mounted to a tambour frame and beaded entirely by hand with a mix of fiber optic and transparent hand blown glass beads, as well as miniature metal sequins. Finally, after being removed from the frame and assembled, the beaded fringe was carefully applied to the hem. The result is a wearable masterpiece, heavy with the weight of the highest quality materials available. When they say a flapper dress, this is what they mean. Slinky and sexy with high cut side slits, incredible light reflecting quality, and of course that soft twinkle of the glass fringe as you move. Perfect in every way, this is an heirloom worthy garment.
Overall excellent condition with minor notes. There are some very subtle age marks scattered throughout (largest about 3/8") that blend in with the busy beaded motifs and are only noticeable upon very close inspection. 1 very small (less than 1/2") repair to the mesh at side hip that gets totally lost. Otherwise perhaps a handful of missing beads or sequins and one or two pinholes, negligible. Frankly remarkable for a piece of this age and nature- very strong and wearable. Presents beautifully.
Note: This gown has not been cleaned and should not be as it will very likely damage both the hand painting and the sequins. However, it appears likely unworn, has no odor and presents very very cleanly. We would recommend wearing this with a slip or bodysuit underneath to protect the material and eliminate the need for any cleaning in the future. The dress can be safely steamed with care.
