Details
A wonderfully glamorous original 1980s cocktail dress with its exquisite matching jacket.
The fitted sleeveless dress features a softly shaped sweetheart neckline and a striking metallic bodice woven with abstract sweeps of gold, silver and copper against black. Below the hips, layers of fluid black chiffon fall into a beautifully pointed handkerchief hemline.
The coordinating open jacket is every bit as special, with matching metallic shoulders and softly gathered sheer chiffon panels that drape around the body. Wear the two pieces together for full vintage drama or remove the jacket to reveal the beautifully shaped dress beneath.
Why I Love This
This outfit captures everything wonderful about 1980s occasionwear: shimmer, movement and unapologetic glamour. The metallic colours look spectacular as they catch the light, while the floating chiffon layers keep the silhouette soft and elegant. It is also wonderfully versatile, giving you two distinct looks in one remarkable vintage ensemble.
