About MeFull-length cream georgette evening dress decorated with diamanté jewels.

Dating to 1934 this sweeping elegant gown would have given the wearer a sleek, fluid, almost statuesque, shape reminiscent of those goddesses of the silver screen. The diamanté decoration gives the dress a stylish twist, adding to the glitsey Hollywood effect.
