What kind of sequin is this?

Hello. The designer of this dress is Michael Novarese. I would love to know what this interseting display of decoration is called. Thank you.

I have seen virtually the identical dress from the late 1960s, but with round sequins - never seen the tear-drop shape sequins before.

That is one very cool dress! Sorry, can't help with a name beyond Jonathan's tear-drop sequins.

I would call them teardrop paillettes!

Love this dress!
