Introducing a complete one-of-a-kind, unique and 1980s gold lamé batwing shirt dress
This striking piece from the 1980s showcases the decade’s bold approach to silhouette and surface design. Constructed from a sheer black base interwoven with metallic gold lamé in an abstract floral pattern, it offers a luminous, sculptural presence. The relaxed batwing (dolman) sleeve structure, combined with a tapered hemline, allows for fluid movement and a flattering drape across the shoulders and arms. Featuring a partial button placket adorned with faceted black and crystal-trimmed buttons, the design balances opulence with refined detailing. The lightweight, semi-transparent fabric gives versatility—ideal styled loose or cinched at the waist with a wide belt for definition.
