1960's Black Sequined, Sheer Lace Mermaid Burlesque Gown

I recently collaborated with the amazing Poise Calamity by Micaija on a shoot using this stunning piece from deep in the Archive.

This stunning gown was handmade in the late 1960's by a burlesque performer for her stage costume.

Sheer stretch lace, embellished by Inky Black Sequins and strategically placed fabric cups. Gathered perfectly in the center of the hips for a vampy, va-va-voom look.
