Vintage 1970s Black Velvet Dress with Dayglo Stars Size M

This is a wonderful 1970s black velvet dress that is decorated with Day-Glo stars in bright tones of green and pink as well as white.  The dress is made in an ankle length sheath style with puff short sleeves that are cinched with satin cording below the midpoint.  This 1970s black velvet dress has a smocked upper that has some elasticity to it, a waist that is defined by black sequinned satin cording, and a skirt that is cut with a flare to the hemline so that the skirt falls in drapes.   The stars are arranged in “galaxies” over the entire dress, really striking.  This 1970s black velvet dress does up the back with a nylon zipper and it is lined in black acetate only from the waist downwards.
