1960s Hand Painted George Halley Couture Gown Labeled and Designer The time and effort it

The time and effort it must have taken to plan this and execute this onto the silk is astounding

The top slips on and is cut straight and boxy through the body

The belt is made the same way and you can cinch the waist as much or little as you please

Love this simple yet dramatic gold silk brocade fitted gown by Mr Blackwell

1960s Hand Painted George Halley Couture Gown Labeled and Designer The time and effort itFrom the George Halley archives comes this one of a kind, hand painted silk gown. Made of a silk crepe that has a hand painted feather design that runs across the top and back of the neck and then down each wide, kimono influenced sleeve. The sleeves are cut directly from the high waist so are amazingly wide and full! The waist nips in and then the skirt falls to the floor in a A line shape. The painted design on the upper bodice has flat silver discs
