So glamorous! This early 1970s tropical evening gown has a vivacious style, wonderfully detailed in layers of floral chiffon with a heavily beaded waist panel. It's a sleeveless summery dress in lavish hues, with gathers to the bust, a ruffle rimmed A-line skirt in two layers, and a full lining. The glittering waist is frosty white glass beads, prong-set rhinestones and faceted "crystals". Matching sheer floral scarf included in a generous rectangle with matching bias ruffle trim.
