1960s Real Metal Thread Shift Dress Set designer-bessi I love how each arm

I love how each arm widens as it nears the cuffs and ends in a slight point

The neck is high and the sleeves billow above the wrist

Comprised of opaque glass pearl beads in black and white

It is exquisite and a stunning

These are then picked up and circle the entire hem as well

It still has its original paper tags attached inside that state that 30% of the fabric is real metal! The silver colored metal thread used and woven through it really goes it a beautiful glinting sheen and depth to the design. The colors are fabulous palette of creams, taupes and greys mixed with that silver thread. A classic
