About LinkBacksThis dress was hand pailletted by a local Detroit dancer named Samura back in the 80's. Pefect for wedding zeffas.
Dress is densely covered with silver paillettes. Dress is approximately a street size 6/8. Slightly stretchy. Length from shoulder to hem is 54". Zipper in back. The mesh front is velcroed so you can wear it with a regular street bra or remove the mesh and wear with a costume bra.
Long flowing sleeves of white chiffon are decorated with tiny mirrors and a drape of silver bugle beads.
An extremely gorgeous dress for only $150!
Some yellowing around the armpits and elastic. Pailletes in excellent condition.

Too bad. But this is a more form fitting dress then the beledi dress Emma S. mentioned earlier. It is really beautiful. Kids used to follow me around and say I looked like an angel, LOL! Originally Posted by Elibelinde

I would love something like this but I think it might be too long. I am 4'10" - watcha think?

Re: Unique, vintage, silver paillette beledi dress.
Unstretched it is about 34" at the fullest part. 30" a little higher up. It should fit a size 6/8.
It is a straight edge bottom so it could probably be taken up without too much problem. It's 30" from hip to edge
I don't have a picture of the dress being worn.
Additional pics showing sleeve construction.
No trades as I am no longer performing and have no need of costumes.Last edited by norma; 12-08-2011 at 08:24 AM.

How long is this from shoulder to floor...If this is right size, think I will indulge!
