Details

Bold and full of attitude, this 1980s TD4 by Eletra cocktail or event dress is insanely good. A sculpted hourglass with front neckline plunge, a deep plunge in the rear with hooks/eyes to adjust how much exposure you want, and endless rows of swinging black fringe. It’s positively electric, seen in motion!

Note: this would be an easy one to alter to be sleeveless without harming the dress, due to the way it's constructed -- please do keep the sleeves for a future owner, though!

Use ShopPay at check-out for layaway. Four no-interest time payments, but your item ships right away!

•Fabric(s): satin sleeves, rayon fringe

•Closures: rear zipper, hooks/eyes

•Designer/Labels: TD4, made in the USA

Any accessories or belts shown in photos are prop pieces and not included unless mentioned.

Measurements

About a modern S to M (tagged a VINTAGE size 7/8). Please allow room for movement and ease and the kind of fit you are going after.

Bust (underarm to underarm measured flat, then doubled) to about 36"

Waist about 28"/29"

Hips to about 38"

Shoulder to hem about 39" and about 49" if you add in the longest pieces of fringe!

Sleeve length about 22 1/2"

Condition

Great vintage shape. 35+ years old.

There is a potential for a few strands of fringe missing, but, if so, it's not readily apparent. The lowermost fringe is of varying lengths, but looks like a stylistic thing.
