1940s Sequin Vintage Evening Show Dress
Bridget's Cabinet was able to get its hands to some original stage items from the Parisian theater Folie Bergerès , these items come from the collection of a former director of the famous French Folies Bergeres Theater from Paris. One of these items is this stunning handmade 1940's sequined evening dress, once used in a show in the Folie Bergerès, despite it has been used during all these performances , this dress is still in very good condition however because of its age and performer usage there is a small spot on the dress where there are some sequins missing (as can being seen in attached pics)
Just enlarge the pictures and you will see the beautiful details.
A very colorful eye-catching item this is. Stunning sequin patterns all over . it must have taken a real long time to fabricate this stunning piece by hand, on the inside you see all the hand-stitched sequin patterns and inside the dress there is still a name tag where you can find the name of the performer.
This is a real opportunity for collectors of old theater and stage costumes because these treasures come straight from the private collection of a former Folie Bergeres director.
