1950s Demi-Couture Level Nazareth Velvet Applique Dress designer-azzedine-alaia The fabric is very light

The fabric is very light in weight but it is still well constructed so feels amazing on

The dress is fully lined in an off-white taffeta feel rayon stretch

I had this listed as from a slightly earlier collection based on the range of time that I knew the owner was purchasing couture during

It is a custom fabric and a stunning confection of woven silk brocade with portions of it being a fine black chenille

This is not a runway piece and the date is based on my clients recollection and similar pieces sold from this year that we have sold in the past

1950s Demi-Couture Level Nazareth Velvet Applique Dress designer-azzedine-alaia The fabric is very lightThis dress is absolutely incredible and made to very high standards with lots of demi couture level finishes. It really is a beautiful little dress and I suspect that at one point it had a designer label but that is lost to time and it now only has the label "Nazareth" which I suspect was a shop name and secondary label back in its day. It is really is a thing of beauty it is made of three distinct fabrics an inky black cotton velvet for the main body
