This is a stunning example of a Cheongsam dress, custom made by a local Californian designer in the late 1960’s for a runway fashion collection. It was crafted from dynamic brocade with a vibrant blue and metallic silver pattern on a black background. It’s silhouette is fitted and flattering with subtle slits at the side seam hem for comfort and movement. The interior is fully lined and the neckline is classic with a mandarin collar with structured inserts and button closure at the chest. There is also a hidden zipper at the side seam. It’s close-fitting silhouette stays true to traditional Chinese cheongsam design. Team it with a dainty clutch and platforms for an opulent evening look.

This item is sold from an excellent, highly rated vintage boutique in Los Angeles, CA.
