1980s Black Wire Plunged Estevez Dress
Killer late seventies early eighties piece from Estevez that is absolutely a power dress combined with in your face sexy. Few pieces I have seen are plunged that far and have that strong a shoulder - it is like he took all the stereotypes of power and sex and dramatically emphasized them! Made of a double layer of a slinky matter black jersey the skirt has lots of movement while clinging to your curves. The waist is emphasized with gathered banding and the sleeves are long and skinny. Each ends with a gather that mimics the front detailing. The shoulders are insane and rounded and then of course you have that wired and formed V that plunges right to the waist! Amazing! Excellent, appears unworn condition.
