This vintage 1960s cocktail dress is a stunning example of mid-century formalwear. Here's a breakdown of its standout features:
-
Silhouette & Style: Strapless with a sweetheart neckline, which was very popular in the 1960s for creating an elegant, feminine shape. The high-low taffeta skirt adds drama and movement, making it ideal for cocktail parties or formal evening events.
-
Boned Bodice Details: The lace-over-taffeta bodice is richly embellished with black sequins and beading in floral patterns, giving it texture and sparkle.
- Cascading high-low hem
-
Skirt Construction: The layered construction—with 3 tulle underlayers and a double taffeta outer layer—provides volume and structure, enhanced by a built-in petticoat.
-
Giant Bow: The oversized bow at the waist is a bold statement, reflecting the playful yet glamorous aesthetic of the time.
-
Quality & Rarity: Though the label LOP is obscure and no longer in business, the craftsmanship suggests high quality, likely from a boutique or small fashion house in Germany.
