Stunning and beautifully made, boho brilliant magenta georgette tunic or short caftan, with amazing, extensive glass beadwork in silver and shimmery pewter glass beads all along every edge of this fantastic garment! Reminiscent of some 1920's tops I've seen, however this is vintage, not antique. No tags so I do not know who made it, or what the fiber content is, but it is in like-new, spotless condition and looks like it was never worn. Semi-sheer georgette fabric. This would look so fabulous with some grey/pewter colored slim satin pants and silver or pewter colored accessories! Slips on over the head, poncho style, and is closed at the sides. The glittering beadwork is just magnificent, with elaborate designs on front, back, the entire hemline and the entire edges of the sides. Drapey and gorgeous---a wonderful bohemian piece! This would be perfect for the holidays and New Years Eve.
IMPORTANT: PLEASE, please be sure to read ALL of the description especially the measurements and condition, and examine ALL the photos, BEFORE asking questions; and do be absolutely positive this piece will fit your requirements, as there are no refunds or returns. I'm a degreed and experienced textile scientist/antique garment restorer and seamstress, and I very, very carefully note any and all condition issues or repairs to every piece of antique/vintage clothing that I'm selling, so I can't stress enough that even if they're in pristine condition, remember they are all decades old and NOT new clothing, so if you desire modern perfection please don't purchase vintage! I don't do layaways or take offers, so please don't ask, thank you. Jewelry/accessories/props in photos are not included and not for sale.
I love antique and vintage clothing and have collected it for years, as well as having a longtime design career including doing costume & restoration work for major movie studios and museums....I've translated that love to my own contemporary creations as well as now offering some choice pieces of my extremely large collection of vintage and antique beauties! I'm meticulous about clothing in general so I make quite sure that every piece of vintage clothing I sell is clean, fresh, pressed and in excellent wearable condition---I do not use any fragranced or heavily-chemical products in caring for/cleaning garments and they are carefully stored in climate-controlled closets at all times except for when I am photographing them for listings. This is a NON SMOKING environment and always has been--I do not sell anything that has any kind of odor, nor do I ship clothing stuffed into shipping bags; I use new USPS boxes ONLY and carefully fold/wrap everything in new tissue paper.
No tags, but will fit a range of sizes, please check measurements!
Measures 76" in circumference from edges to edges in the bust area; the sides are closed, and there is also an extra line of stitching from the hip area up to the general waist area on both sides, making this area of measurement 52" in circumference.
Length is 34" from top of shoulder seam to hem; Mannequin is approx. 5' 6" and a modern size 6/8, this could probably be worn by sizes up to an 18 or so--please double check measurements to be sure!
Condition: Beautiful NWOT vintage condition, no rips, spots, stains, odors or other damages, no bead loss, looks fresh and clean. I believe this fabric to be a poly/rayon blend.
Please make sure this will suit you as to measurements and style before you purchase; I don't do alterations or accept returns.....Also, please be sure to read my shop policies/shipping info in full before you purchase (click on "policies" on my main shop page).
