- Oleg Cassini started his career working for Jean Patou, opened his first shop in Rome and eventually moved to the US in 1936. He designed Hollywood costumes starting in 1941 and dressed Hollywood for decades. He also had his own label and was the designer of choice for Jacqueline Kennedy while she was the First Lady.
- In 2003, The Council of Fashion Designers of America Board of Directors noted Cassini's extraordinary design achievements with their first ever Board of Directors Special Tribute.
- This dress is from his Black Tie label which was his ready-to-wear line in the 1980s.
- The dress is made of a pink silk chiffon and then that has been densely covered in iridescent clear sequins. Mixed in and around the sequins are thousands of little clear glass tube beads that have silver in their centres. The same tube beads are applied to form a border that runs over the straps and around the neckline.
- Pretty straps curve up and over each shoulder and the front neckline is scooped. The back is also scooped and set to sit a little lower so more of your upper back is exposed. My dress form is a bit short-waisted and the front neckline will fall properly on an actual body and will not be as low as it appears here.
- It skims over the bust and is shaped to come in slightly over the waist. From there curves back out over the hips. The skirt falls from there in a fairly straight line to the hem. At the back there is a slit that runs up the centre to allow you to walk easily.
- Inside it is lined in a pink silky rayon, and that combined with the pink silk chiffon of the outer layer, keeps it very light in weight and easy to wear.
- The dress is fully lined in a pink silky rayon and closes with a back hidden set zipper. I do see the occasional loose thread and perhaps a missing sequin or beadhere and there, but I do not see any bare areas.
