About the Item

This is a very quirky and interesting premier boutique dress purchased by our client for a boho themed wedding in 2000. The main material is silk crepe in a pink - purple shade which is then embellished with knitted pastel coloured floral motifs and studded with little crystals and sequins. The dress is empire waisted with a knitted inverted waist band and the straight skirt has an tiered asymmetric hemline. It fastens to the side with an invisible zip. It is beautifully lined in a muslin cotton and remains in excellent, gently worn condition. The designers label has disappeared but the fabric composition labels remain and a size label in an Italian 44. This is a little smaller than modern sizing and now a best fit for up to sizes UK 10 or US 6. Our model is a UK 6-8 or US 2-4 and this looked great on her with room to spare. MEASUREMENTS Bust - 34 in. (86.4 cm) Waist - 30 in. (76.2 cm) Hip - 35 in. (88.9 cm) Length - 44.5 in. (113 cm) Shoulders - 16 in. (40.6 cm)

1990s Bellville Sassoon Velvet Slip Dress with Sequinned Bodice

1990s Bellville Sassoon Velvet Slip Dress with Sequinned Bodice

By Bellville Sassoon

Located in London, GB

This 1990s Bellville Sassoon floor-length dress is crafted from an amalgamation of beautiful fabrics. The flattering, bias-cut body and skirt are tailored from devoré cloth, showcasing sheer aubergine crepe detailed with velvet patterned with autumnal-hued paisley. The bodice is made from a sheer mesh and is adorned with hundreds of beads in hues picked out from the paisley across the skirt. This beadwork forms a lattice and is finished with swirling paisley shapes that mirror the patterns further down the dress. The bodice has an asymmetric cut with one beaded shoulder and one sleeve tailored from aubergine chiffon and burgundy mesh. The bodice is boned the whole way around, which cinches the waist and flatters the bust; it is lined at the front but at the back remains sheer, meaning that the beads appear to adorn the skin. This is hands down the best Bellville Sassoon design we have ever had in Circa's collection and this whimsical dress is lined with crimson satin to the floor. The label reads “Bellville Sassoon Lorcan Mullany”. Made in England and in excellent vintage condition with no flaws of any note and looks barely worn. It is labelled a UK size 10 or US 6 but sizes vary hugely between vintage brands, so please check our measurements below. There is no composition label and the fabric has no stretch. British couture house Bellville Sassoon was founded in 1953 by Belinda Bellville and provided Parisian style fashion in the heart of London for aristocrats and debutantes. Designer David Sassoon...
