About this piece

A vintage women’s evening gown from the 1980s by British designer Carole Lee, celebrated for her elaborate, fantasy-inspired creations. This black dress is made from layers of semi-sheer lace, detailed with sequins that catch the light. The boned corset bodice is paired with puff-style sleeves created from internal ruffles, giving volume without the bulk of shoulder pads. A subtle bustle effect is formed by an additional tulle underskirt at the back, while ruffled cuffs add a playful accent. Finished with a deep scoop back, the gown balances gothic drama with feminine elegance, making it suitable as a statement evening look or as an alternative wedding dress.
