This vintage Zum Zum black sequined and beaded dress features a velvet bodice and lace detailing. The black velvet on the dress could be a really deep, dark purple. It’s so dark that it looks black to me, but with my flash, it seems to be a hint of dark, dark purple.Size 5-6, 1980’s. Beautiful dress no visible stains or flaws. I did not wash it.
