Jean Louis Sherrer Lacquered Lace Cocktail Dress

About the Item

Lovely J.L Scherrer cocktail dress in black lacquered lace over black velvet boned bustier dress. Larged ruffled lace collar and cuffs. Covered lace buttons down the back provide entry and a gathered lace "waist" cinches the silhouette. Lace ruff can be propped up with the addition of jewelry (choker) underneath for a more dramatic look.
The lacquered lace is shiny and slightly subversive. Multiple layers of tulle prop up the gathered skirt. This wearable 80's relic looks particularly current with its visible velvet shoulder pads. A beautifully crafted and constructed dress.
Length: 35"
Sleeve: 25"
Shoulder across back: 15"
Lace overdress waist: 25"
Velvet bustier underdress waist: 20-22"
