Fully Beaded Dress

A fully beaded dress should leave no plain patches, and ours keeps that promise: sequins and beads form one continuous Art Deco pattern over the whole body, down to the fringed hem. The cut is a straight 1920s line that ends around the knee, in black and gold, black and silver, black and red, or purple.

Living with a Fully Beaded Dress

Allover beadwork changes how a dress behaves. It is heavier than a plain one, so it drapes straight down and barely creases. It also asks for some care: sit gently on rough chairs, keep velcro and chunky bracelets away from it, and change before anyone suggests the pool. Between parties, lay it flat in a box, since a hanger lets the beadwork stretch the top.

Colors of the Fully Beaded Dress

On the black-based colorways, the gold sequins, silver sequins or red beadwork sit on a dark ground and read sharp from across a room. Purple is the least expected of the four and the one to choose if you want to be remembered. Explore further beaded flapper dresses for other lengths.

Fully Beaded Dress FAQ

Does a fully beaded dress feel heavy?

Heavier than a plain dress, yes, but the weight is spread evenly, so it feels like a weighted drape rather than a load.

Can I sit down in it?

Yes. The straight knee-length cut leaves room to sit; just smooth the fringe behind you so it does not fold under.

What is the largest size?

XXXL. Check your bust and hips against the chart on this page, since a beaded fabric gives very little.
