A breathtaking example of 1960s evening elegance, this Evelyn Byrnes gown pairs ethereal movement with sculptural detail. The bodice is adorned with black feather-like appliqué, creating rich texture and dimension, while silk ribbon straps and a dramatic front silk bow add a touch of romantic refinement.
Below, the skirt cascades in soft, airy folds of cream silk chiffon, its pleated drape moving with cloudlike lightness. Fully lined in stretch rayon for comfort and fluidity, the gown maintains a beautiful silhouette while allowing ease of wear. A back zipper closure preserves the clean lines of the design.
This piece perfectly captures the mid-century balance of grace and drama—both modern and dreamlike, and unmistakably elegant.
