This glam rock inspired bustier cocktail dress in a classy black metallic organza fabric is embellished with 12 inches zipper accentuated with white beaded appliques such as pearls, beads and wire. A detachable mini blazer made of gathered ruffles out of black tulle fabric is used just to cover the shoulder. A black cocktail hat with white rose as brooch is made of silk satin fabric. (optional) The intricate details mark a simple yet sophisticated design for a perfectly elegant look.
