About the Item
Radiating drama and elegance, this 1980s Judith Ann Creations gown is a true statement piece designed for moments that demand unforgettable glamour. Known for her richly embellished eveningwear, Judith Ann created pieces that seamlessly blended artistry and allure — and this gown captures that legacy in full.
The body-skimming silhouette is lavishly adorned with ivory soutache embroidery and intricate hand-sewn beadwork, creating a richly textured surface that shimmers under the light. At the center front, a sheer illusion cutout framed by meticulous bead detailing offers a hint of daring contrast to the gown’s demure long sleeves and high neckline.
What truly sets this piece apart are the crystal-beaded tassels cascading from each shoulder — strands of liquid sparkle that sway dramatically with every movement, echoing the decadence of Old Hollywood and the glamour of the red carpet. A detachable, matching embroidered belt allows for optional waist definition, highlighting the gown’s elongating lines.
Whether worn as an unconventional bridal gown, a show-stopping gala look, or a collector’s evening masterpiece, this creation is both versatile and timeless. With its fusion of 1920s-inspired beadwork and 1980s power-silhouette confidence, it embodies the kind of rare couture-like craftsmanship that makes vintage Judith Ann Creations so coveted.
Condition: Excellent vintage condition, meticulously preserved.
Size: Approximate US 8 (please refer to measurements).
Closure: Back zip, optional self-tie belt.
Provenance: Authentic vintage Judith Ann Creations, sourced thoughtfully and verified by RERACKED. Pieces like this don’t come around often — and they don’t stay long.
Collector’s Note:
Gowns of this caliber rarely surface on the market. With its opulent beadwork, crystal tassel shoulders, and dramatic presence, this piece holds the same red-carpet-ready allure as gowns seen at the Met Gala or preserved in fashion museum archives. A true investment in wearable art, it is destined to turn heads and elevate any collection.

View AllBadgley Mischka Attributed Ivory Beaded Lace Silk Bridal Gown, Circa 2000
By Badgley Mischka
Located in Kingston, NY
An exceptional and exquisitely constructed bridal gown attributed to Badgley Mischka, dating to the late 1990s to early 2000s, a formative period when the American design house was defining its signature blend of red-carpet glamour and refined bridal elegance.
The gown is distinguished by a meticulously hand-beaded lace bodice, densely embroidered with scrolling floral motifs in ivory-on-ivory beadwork and sequins. The embellishment is both intricate and restrained, demonstrating the atelier-level craftsmanship for which Badgley Mischka was celebrated during this era. A sculptural square neckline with wide-set straps frames the décolletage, while long, semi-sheer lace sleeves provide balance and architectural softness.
The fitted bodice transitions seamlessly into a fluid silk crepe skirt, cut close through the hips before falling into a gentle, elongated hemline with subtle flare. This contrast between ornate surface detail and minimalist drape is emblematic of Badgley Mischka’s bridal work at the turn of the millennium—timeless, elegant, and deliberately understated. The back of the gown is finished with a row of fabric-covered buttons, reinforcing its couture sensibility and period authenticity.
The interior reveals structured boning and refined finishing, consistent with atelier or runway sample construction. The absence of a sewn-in label is in keeping with known Badgley Mischka bridal samples from this era, many of which were produced for showroom presentation or press and never intended for retail sale.
Presented in exceptional vintage condition, with beadwork intact and fabric retaining its original luminosity, this gown represents a rare opportunity to acquire a true designer bridal piece from a pivotal moment in modern American fashion history.
