Designer black cocktail dress is pure silk and sublime quality! It's black crepe with an hourglass bodice, sheer chiffon shoulders, buttoned cuffs, and a flirty full skirt. The skirt is two layers of black silk chiffon... the kind that just sighs with movement... over a pure silk lining. This Adele Simpson dress has a very 1960s look though its label tells us it was made in the 1980s. Absolutely gorgeous!
