Alyce Designs Purple Beaded Formal Dress Size 14

About this piece

DESCRIPTIONAlyce Designs size 14 floor-length formal gown in luminous purple with flashes of teal-blue as the fabric catches the light. The sleeveless silhouette has broad straps, a deep V neckline, a fitted princess-seamed bodice, and a softly flared skirt. Curving beadwork radiates across the front and back in floral, scroll, and fan-like patterns.WORTH NOTINGThe label confirms a 100% polyester shell and 100% polyester lining, made in China. Slender tube beads in teal, purple, and pink create movement over the iridescent fabric, while the back closes with a centered zipper and hook-and-eye at the neckline.MEASUREMENTSTagged women’s size 14. Bust, waist, hip, and length were not measured. Estimated from the hanging views, this is a full-length gown with a fitted torso and gentle A-line sweep; that silhouette description is a visual estimate, not a substitute for garment measurements.CONDITIONPre-owned. The supplied full-length views show pronounced storage wrinkling, particularly through the skirt, plus a few small surface spots or specks. No obvious large tears are visible, and the zipper and hook-and-eye are present. Because the beadwork is extensive and only three photographs were supplied, every bead and sequin cannot be confirmed; scattered losses, loose threads, or minor snags may be present. Label directs spot cleaning only with cold water and mild soap—do not wash or dry clean.STYLE NOTESA dramatic choice for a gala, formal wedding, stage event, or prom. Let the blue-violet sheen lead with silver sandals and a minimal clutch, or echo the colorful beadwork with amethyst and teal accessories.FROM THE HOUSEThe peacock-like color shift and hand-drawn sweep of the beadwork make this gown feel ready for a grand entrance. ~ Genevieve
