Silk Dropped Dress For Sale on 1stDibs

Find the exact vintage or contemporary silk dropped dress you’re shopping for in the variety available on 1stDibs. Many people prefer Black, but fashion is all about individuality — you can find Beige, Gray and more options on these pages. You’re likely to find the perfect silk dropped dress among the distinctive accessories we have available, which includes versions made as long ago as the 19th Century as well as those produced as recently as the 21st Century. Finding an appealing accessory such as this — no matter the origin — is easy, but Alexander McQueen, Emilio Pucci and Chanel each produced a popular version that is worth a look.

How Much is a Silk Dropped Dress?

On average, a silk dropped dress on 1stDibs sells for $770, while they’re typically $169 on the low end and $10,315 for the highest priced versions of this item.

Finding the Right Clothing for You

From museum-worthy vintage Oscar de la Renta evening dresses and jackets to audacious T-shirts and trousers from provocative punk designer Vivienne Westwood, one thing is abundantly clear: If the clothing available on 1stDibs could talk, it would certainly make a statement. 

For fashion lovers, the 1990s have become associated with styles adopted by today’s supermodels and influencers — think Galliano and Cavalli — but maybe ‘80s accessories are among your (guilty?) pleasures. Playful, boldly colored coats and outerwear from Moschino and other titans of the era can take a simpler ensemble to the next level, while chic and practical suits from the likes of Christian Dior and Chanel remain classic for haute couture advocates and beyond. By exploring the vast array of vintage collections on these pages, you can transform your closet into a retreat that is as retro as it is royal. 

Velvet cocktail dresses and silk evening gowns designed by French-born American couturiere Pauline Trigère — who dressed Wallis Simpson, the Duchess of Windsor — have proven timeless since their mid-century debut, while an overcoat by Alexander McQueen is the perfect finishing touch. In fact, an emerald one stays in rotation for Kate Middleton, Duchess of Cambridge.

Those seeking modern high-fashion brands are also in luck. Turn your day-to-day into a runway with selections from Dolce & Gabbana, Yves Saint Laurent and Versace or complete that fresh look with stunning footwear classics from the likes of Gucci and Christian Louboutin. The future — and glamorous past — of fashion is yours for the wearing. 

Build your collection of covetable and iconic vintage garments by shopping on 1stDibs. No matter where you roam, our diverse apparel and accessories will keep you covered in the hottest styles and comfiest black hoodie imaginable.

Questions About Silk Dropped Dress
  • 1stDibs ExpertJune 30, 2023
    The symbolism of a silk dress is really a matter of individual interpretation. Some people associate silk dresses with wealth and status because silk is a luxury material, while others merely appreciate its enveloping texture and link it with softness and sensuality. On 1stDibs, shop a collection of silk dresses from some of the world’s top boutiques.
  • 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022
    A drop-waist dress is also called a flapper dress. It is characterized by a low waistband, which falls at the hips, and gives the illusion of lengthening the body. On 1stDibs, shop vintage and designer flapper dresses and gowns from top fashion boutiques around the world.
