Gold Beaded Short Dress

The Gold Beaded Short Dress is short in the 1920s sense of the word: the hem sits at the knee, which was daring for the decade and still feels lively today. It is covered in gold sequins and beads, finished with tassels, and has a V-neck with tank straps.

Gold Dress Ideas for New Year's Eve and Birthdays

A gold dress is made for countdown parties, landmark birthdays and gala nights when you want to catch every camera flash. Keep accessories in one metal tone: gold-tone earrings, a simple headband and a small clutch. Black heels or nude T-strap shoes let the dress take the spotlight, and a black feather boa adds contrast if the room is full of gold sequins.

Fit and Length of the Gold Beaded Dress

The silhouette is a slim sheath with slight stretch, cut to follow the body rather than flare. Knee-length makes it comfortable for dancing and sitting through dinner. If you prefer a hem above the knee, check the photos and the size chart carefully, since this dress is not a mini. Sizes run from S to XXXL; see the table on this page for measurements. The other colorways are in our beaded flapper dresses.

Straighter, looser dresses than before, with lower waists and hemlines around the knee by mid-decade, worn with bobbed hair, headbands and long necklaces.

Is there a lining?

The supplier does not specify. A slip underneath is a good idea for extra coverage.

Can I wear it to a wedding?

For an evening reception, yes. At a daytime ceremony, check that the dress code welcomes sparkle.
