1980s Powder Aqua Blue Drape Back Open Shoulder Dramatic Disco Era Dress

Icy pastel aqua blue disco era dress has statement gathered open shoulders and scoop back.  An attached drape hangs from the back and wraps to the front and ties. The second to the last two images show the drape untied so you can see the construction.

I love how the monochromatic aqua color showcases the construction of the dress. 

I'm not sure the fabric content but it feels like silky nylon or rayon. The dress closes with a hidden nylon zipper in the rear.

Please note: The listing is for the dress only and does not include the necklace.

Condition: It's hard to show but there are faint spots in the front that are present. And some gray sketchy marks on the upper right sleeve and wrist. The very last image shows soiling as best as I could show them. The dress needs a cleaning but if you are not super picky, I think you could get a wear out of it before you clean it.  I have not attempted to remove spots or clean the dress.

Also want to point out that the edges are unfinished on the outside of the top of the shoulders where the drape is sewn onto the dress, not sure why it is constructed this way. I highlight this in one of the images (#6).

See last images for construction of dress.
