This is one of my favorite styles of Halston beading. It dates to 1981 (a dress with this particular pattern of beading is shown on page 190 of Gross & Rottman's book Halston) and it is quite a wonderful thing. Its all hand beaded in aqua blue and clear crystal beads on a sheer silk organza. The coat is unlined.
It was designed to be worn open, and there are no closures. I imagine it with a white pantsuit, or a micro-mini skirt. It is a weighty garment. When you put it on, you will feel like royalty... it just feels like something very, very special.

condition: very good, no bead loss, no holes, no stains. There are a few reinforced areas inside along the shoulders. They are not patching damage, but were put to prevent damage. I do not consider this a flaw, but needed to be mentioned.

size: about a 6
. The bust, waist and hips are fairly free. The bust can go to 38" 
. Shoulder seam to shoulder seam is 14"
. Length 43"
