WOW – this RARE cocktail dress is simply breathtaking! From the 1980’s this vintage dress is designed by Mignon New York for Nan Duskin (Philadelphia’s premier shop for high-end women’s fashions from 1926 to 1994). The underlying pattern is a gorgeous black lace floral design, which is enhanced by the outer material that is completely covered in clear sequins. The final result of this two layer design is a shimmery, silvery stunner! It has a fixed wrap style skirt in the front and is gathered at the left side of the waist and affixed with a beautiful broach. The dramatic V shaped back adds to the charm of this show-stopper. Zip back with 2 hook and eye closures at top, one snap-type button closure at each sleeve.
