Black Chiffon Beaded Evening Dress

The halter-style bodice is fashioned with a decollete neckline, embroidered by Lesage with silver paillettes and glass beads. The beading graduates at the midriff to an icicle pattern, then to light, starry highlights. The assymmetrical hem features a high-front vent, finished with a long train. Together with custom shoes by Massaro.
