Basha Gold

Extraordinary 1960s Unlabeled Yellow Beaded & Sequins Embellished Dress

$1,900

The beading on this 1960s dress is a true highlight of its design, showcasing meticulous craftsmanship. Each bead is carefully hand-sewn onto the fabric, forming a pattern of raised diamond shapes that give the dress a textured, almost three-dimensional effect. Within each diamond, clusters of beads in pink, purple, and blues are arranged to create small floral motifs. These floral details catch the light, adding a touch of sparkle and movement to the garment.

The density of the beading across the entire surface of the dress is remarkable, speaking to the labor-intensive work typical of high-end 1960s evening wear. The beading at the neckline and hem is especially intricate, with rows of multicolored beads densely packed to create a bold, jewel-like border that frames the dress. This combination of color, texture, and shimmer results in a visually stunning garment and a tactile masterpiece.

This 1960s fully beaded and embellished dress is in very good vintage condition, with only minor wear consistent with its age. The exterior beading remains intact and vibrant, the condition issues are limited to the interior lining, where there is some light fabric fraying and a small hole near the hem. However, none of this is visible when the dress is worn, ensuring the exterior retains its polished appearance. Despite these minor imperfections, the dress remains a striking and wearable example of 1960s evening fashion, perfect for collectors or those looking to make a statement at a special event.
