1966 Pierre Cardin Paris Metallic Silver Beaded Sequin Space-Age Mod Mini Dress

ID: 1114243

Size: small

Condition: excellent

A totally iconic and highly collectable Pierre Cardin metallic silver beaded and sequin mod mini dress dating back to his 1966 fall-winter collection. Cardin is known for his avant-garde style and his unique geometric shapes, often ignoring the female form. This incredibly rare fully-sequin dress is a perfect example of his genius. The construction of this garment is amazing; intricately beaded neckline and cuffs that are lightly padded within, to create sensational depth. If you look closely you can see gorgeous ice-blue circular beads which I personally adore mixed with the silver. There is a soft interior nylon lining so the thousands of metallic sequins can sparkle without sacrificing your comfort to party. I love the A-line mini shape which was very popular during this period and so figure flattering. This dress is archival fashion on the highest level; a well thought out idea in an effortless silhouette. A beautiful example of mod fashion history that looks like it just walked off the Paris runway.
