Back to that conversation we were were having about paying homage to living designers who have proved themselves over a span of decades as opposed to a few seasons. And if all you base your opinion on is the look of one vintage dress that could have been made by any of the most talented members of the Chambre Syndicale, let this dress be it. A brilliant marriage of spectacular print, color, fabric and silhouette, Galanos deserves all the same adoration as editors pay to a single pair of Balmain booties. Mocha and white print is punctuated with red on positively fluid silk crepe. Slit from the nape to the waist in back (there are hidden lingerie hooks there for options), it puts the focus on tasteful parts of the body. Wrapped skirt gives the impression of being slit to the thigh (but isn't) and ruffled cap sleeves with a matching printed chiffon sash to wear around the waist or neck. A wonderful dress that is dramatic without being garish. Bust up to 36" and total length 56", this is best suited for a tall modern 8. Excellent condition. $975.00 |
