ID: 1226241

Size: small

Condition: excellent

A gorgeous and highly collectible Fashion Originators Guild colorful floral maxi dress with the most impressive rhinestone detailing dating back to the mid-1930's. The Guild was organized in 1932 to protect its members from 'piracy,' which they said was an unfair and tortious invasion of their design rights. This organization helped solidify the role of the designer as an intellectual property holder and changed the landscape of fashion forever. This rare showstopper really captures the essence of the magical 1930's time period. The vibrant deco floral print in bold hues of red, green, blue and pink against the rich, black silk rayon fabric radiates timeless elegance. Dramatic, dazzling prong-set rhinestones placed on the adorable neck bow, sleeves, and matching waist belt. These rhinestones are even color coordinated to match the print which is extra special. They catch the light with every movement and elevate the dress from playful to truly spectacular. The dress is crafted to flatter the figure, it even has a waist belt for the perfect fit. I especially adore those charming cuffed puff-sleeves. This maxi dress embodies the perfect balance of elegance and whimsy that could easily have graced the silver screen of Hollywood’s golden age.
