Folded in storage for a half-century, a fully sequined flapper dress weighing 2.5 pounds.
I admit it: I’m smitten with dresses from the 1920s. Historically speaking, they are tangible manifestations of women’s progress as they literally freed the body to move more naturally. Beyond their cultural symbolism, however, they also represent some of the best examples of fashion as a fine art.
Imagine my unbridled joy when I discovered a sequined Art Deco gem folded inside a plastic box in 2013.
