Size 8 Black Cocktail Dress - 1990s Black Beads Sequins & Silk - Bias Cut Flirty Flare Skirt - Criss Cross Back Neckline - NWT Deadstock

Dark and glamorous with a retro 1990s appeal, this cocktail dress is fully beaded and sequined in jagged piecework, with a full flared skirt in a flirty length. It's bias cut for a custom-feeling fit, with a V-neck in front and woven criss-cross straps in back. Fully lined and tags attached, including a small packet of extra sequins. In the 90s, this dress was sale-priced to $99.99 - this would be over $150 in today's dollars!
