Mini Dress - Vintage Oleg Cassini - Size 8 - Disco Fever Party Dress for Mermaids with Somewhere to Be on popular New Years Eve
Legendary fashion designer Oleg Cassini dressed movie stars and flawless ladies du jour until his passing in 2006. The woman he imagined for this sequin number probably would have emerged from a crystalline pool on a floating clamshell, glistening with superiority. A mermaid that likes to throw shade.
Or maybe she liked to Cha-cha. No matter the venue, it's a strappy sandals and waterproof eyeliner kind of get up. This is a frisky dress. One for dancing on tables and getting bottle service. New Year's Eve. That promotion. That resignation.
With an aqua wash of individually hand-sewn paillettes, the body is supported up by two hand-beaded straps and promises some kind of spectacle. A swooping, low-cut back shows off your dancer's physique. Dress is made of 100% silk with rayon lining. Looks expensive, because at one time it was expensive. Now let's see what you can do, you fetching mermaid.
