Gatsby-Like Decadence, Only From Decades

This exquisite beaded Deco dress brings to mind the hedonistic romps and globetrotting ways of F. Scott Fitzgerald's 1920s-era characters... but, just as is the case with all things Fitzgerald, this dress is not what it seems! It's actually an anonymous sample from the 1980s, and a darn good interpretation of a classic style if we do say so.

Anonymous 1920s-style Beaded Ombre Effect Deco Dress, c. 1980s. Fits a contemporary size 2 to 4

LBD by Anonyme...

Anonymous is my favorite designer. However, the daughter of the original owner of this terribly chic LBD feels this dress is either Jacques Fath or Jacques Heim...the label has gone astray, but it is French Haute Couture and appears flawless. Classic details with a gorgeous bugle and flat bead sequin pattern. It will NEVER go out of style, so surrender to Anonyme....
