I like how it sparkles. (I’m 7 years old.)

Perfect. This looks like something Lucy Honeychurch would wear in Room With a View.

It is very goldish, and has a lot of designs on it. But it is very beautiful. I like how it is sparkly.

I find interesting how many said this dress appears so comfortable and soft. Still in this period the corset was needed to achieve the mono-bosom, S curve that pushed the waist back and pushed the spine forward.

This image really doesn’t do this piece any justice.In person, the gold beading and sequin shine much, much brighter.The beaded patterns themselves are so fluid and strong.The draped silk netting really “gounds” its self with the weight and shap of the drape. And the cascaded beadwork does the same at the hemline of the dreaa. Although the dress is broken in two distinct pieces, each with differernt silhouettes, they merge beautifully. I feel they create the same dynamic by two different means.I can definitely appreciate the gorgeous contrast.I feel that, though the beaded ropework in the front is beautiful and very characteristic of its time period,if I were to wear this garment, I would probably remove it.Its just a bit heavy for today, or for me , rather. I was so delighted with the movement of this beadwork and simplistic elegance that I am considering the pattern, or something like it as inspiration for my own wedding gown…if and when this comes to fruition. Absolutely gorgeous.

It is fascinating to see an evening dress with the S-curve silhouette. The details of this piece are so beautifully crafted.. Represents pure elegance!
