Vintage 1960s brown velvet and sequin ballgown size small

velvet top with voluminous skirt covered in sequins

full bottom

gold ribbon trim

bursts of colorful sequins

Made by Saks Fifth Avenue,

The tag states it was made for a L Rockfeller (they forgot the E) on 12/1/61

this is a stunning piece with some issues, there is an applique added to cover sequins missing

this has been dry cleaned but the underskirt is stained

there is a tulle like ruffle underneath that adds volume

this is custom made so there isn't a sizing

This is sheer to about the knee, I think there is one lining missing

and there is damage to current lining in place see photos,

my mannequin is a size 8 and the dress is a bit snug

zippered back

hook and eye closure at the back waist
