This dancing dress is made of thin, delicate chiffon embroidered heavily with beads and strass. The fringe swings in accordance with body movements. Since the 1910s new dancing tunes such as the tango and the Charleston had captivated both Europeans and Americans, generating passion for strenuous dances.
