1960s Pearl Detailed George Halley Gown
This amazing gown only gets better as you get nearer and see the many details that have been added to the bodice. It is entirely hand finished and meticulously crafted. The fabric is a panne silk velvet that is insanely smooth to the touch. It also give the gown a sleek finish that catches and bounces the light beautifully and I love the contrast between the light and dark. The bodice is especially wonderful - it is covered in swirls of varying sized pearls set amongst big glass crystals! The sleeves are long and lean and the bodice has a reverse curve under the bust for a bit of definition. The skirt flows towards the floor in a sleek column. It has a delicious regal feel to it and I love the fabric and all the special touches. Excellent condition

Fully lined in handset blue tissue silk through the body and sleeves. It closes with a back painted metal zipper. Each sleeve has a small painted metal zipper set into the cuff. Note that some areas of the off white print in the velvet has darkened particularly on the one sleeve that is photoed. It is perhaps a shade and a half darker. It is even and because of the sheen of the velvet when it is on it appears to be a trick of the light. It is there and it is sold as such and I have reduced the price dramatically to accommodate for this small imperfection. Hand finished and all the bead and pearl work is hand set.
