Vintage Victor Costa black silk velvet bronze Lamé leopard high leg split Hollywood star long dress big shoulder pad cinch cummerbund waist

This dress is SENSATIONAL there is no other word for it. BUT, it IS a pour on dress. Which means, that you have to make your shoulders small , point your arms up, and swim into it and wiggle to fit. Once in you're ok, and it looks like you have been poured in it which of course you have effectively!. You may require a little help. So it is for a small UK size 8, or a UK size 6. I am between an 8 and 10 atm, so , when I tell you I had to virtually dislocate my shoulders to pull it over me...

"I'll not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own" "I am not a Number...I am a Free Man" Great sentiments from Patrick McGoohan as he tried to warn us in this seminal tv series made 1966 . I've been inspired by the tv series The Prisoner and the song by Revival Mod band The Times in the early 1980s to do this video! Some are original 1960s pieces other more recent, but all goes together well as this colour was huge in 1966 and was reflected in...
