Black sequins are highly attractive and elegant! Designed by Dior is this 1961 evening ensemble-short dress. The whole short dress is covered by a monochrome pattern created from thousands of overlapping sequins; they are thoroughly aligned in different directions to from a diamond trellis design. I like the glittery effect that the dress has and you can clearly see the rigid pattern through the sequins. The colour is fantastic because it reflects nicely; when hitting the light it would appear in many different shades of black, grey and silver.
