This vintage drop-waist beaded silk dress was made by Victoria Royal in the 1980s. The brand is known for their opulently beaded-silk eveningwear. I love this dress for many reasons, starting with its versatility— the straps are removable, so it can be worn strapless, or with the dainty spaghetti straps. The drop-waist bodice is entirely beaded, giving way to a gathered skirt with a peplum— each edge is scalloped to emphasize the petal-like effect. This silhouette reminds me of a modern version of Christian Dior's famous Venus and Junon gowns. The structured silk material loans itself well to the sculpted silhouette. The bodice is boned on the sides to create a flattering hourglass shape. (Note that fiber contents are not listed, but it feels like silk.)

Measurements: This will best fit a size Medium, or possibly Small; note that the bodice is boned and meant to be very fitted. (Shown clipped on a size X-Small to simulate proper fit.)

Chest: 35.5"

Waist: 28" laid flat, up to about 29" pulled taut 

Hips: 39" laid flat, up to 40" pulled taut

Length: 34" from top of neckline to longest hem points (hem is scalloped)

Good vintage condition overall, with minor wear commensurate with age, including some minor loss to beading in a patch on the back, but it truly is not at all noticeable when worn, and because of the way the beading is done, it won't cause any additional loss. With any questions about the specific condition or size, please email [email protected] for additional photos or measurements, as all sales are final.

More comfortable than flats!
Size: 8.5, Color: Bay Fog
I love these sandals! They run true to size, and they’re sooo comfortable. I was worried about getting fakes, but these were the real deal. The color is lovely (light purple). The foot bed can get dirty, but I find them to wash up nicely (by hand, not machine). I have purchased two more colors since! So much better than flats!

Comfy dual-mode sandals
Cute, quite comfy to walk in and love the support of the heel strap! It is not as comfy if using in slipper mode because the straps don’t keep your foot tight enough. I am usually a 8.5 but it runs slightly small so I switched up to a 9.

Love them
Size: 5.5, Color: Red Pepper
I have gotten so many compliments on these shoes! They’re true to size and comfortable. Because of the material feet might sweat easier if hot but they dry quick. Quality is great and the color looks good, it’s more of a orange/red color. I got a 5.5 size
