This striking vintage evening gown by French designer Paulette Bureau dates to the 1970s and is entirely covered in sequins in black, gold, and silver. The sequins are applied on a stretchy black base, creating a shimmering surface with significant visual impact.
The dress features a wide scoop neckline at both front and back, three-quarter length sleeves, and a flared floor-length skirt. It closes at the back with a zipper and a metal hook and eye. Due to the dense sequin work, the gown has a substantial weight. It is fully lined except for the sleeves.
Made in France. A bold and dramatic vintage piece, ideal for formal evening occasions.
