Sheer Black.

These three dresses have a few things in common, they are all black, two of them have gold studding details, and all of them show of some skin. Without showing off some skin. What am I talking about? Have I gone mad? No I'm talking about sheer black beauty!

The first dress is anonymous from the 40s. It is knee length and has long capped sleeves. The dress is sexually provocative with the thin weight of the black crepe which means you might reveal a little more than is normal. But what is great about it, is unless you are the same color as the mannequin you wont show off too much. It also is studded with bronze detailing which carries a very Moroccan vibe with it. Tied off with a belt at the waist the dress is a easy choice for formal day or sexy night! SOLD



This gown is very demure and very classic but also youthfully sexy. By Karl Lagerfeld for Chanel this gown is dated to the 80s. It has a full tulle skirt and the bodice is made of sheer black and ribbon fabric. This dress makes me think of fall and winter 06 Lanvin and would look amazing with a chunky gold necklace under sheer collar line. Otherwise this is a classic ball gown for the belle of the ball. SOLD



Another anonymous creation from the 40s, this black crepe dress is also decorated with bronze nail heads on the bodice, collar, sleeves and waistline. It is not a particularly 40s dress, which when you thin of conjures up images of utilitarian day suits for women. This gown shows an alternative side to a decade of unrest and brings back classic Hollywood Glamour from a decade that was stripped bear of it. Such a classic option. SOLD
