Leonard Paris Multicolor Florals Silk Sleeveless Maxi Dress Gown, 1990s

About the Item

This gown arrives just in time for Spring. It’s not only the consummate garden party (or garden wedding) ensemble, but also a lovely example of why Leonard Paris has been sought out for its colorful textiles since its founding in 1958. The silk maxi comes to life with a dimensional print of watercolor blooms in a palette that pairs soft pastel pink and green with saturated fuchsia, orange and yellow. Engineered for the prettiest (and most figure-flattering) composition, the print’s flowers tumble down the side of the dress and then recede before being finished with a striped band at the hem. The dress silhouette is sweet, youthful and elegant, with wider straps, a square neckline, a fitted bodice, detachable sash belt with hook-and-eye closures in the back, and full skirt. It’s a fabulous find that still looks current today and will remain timelessly romantic for years to come. Size estimate: S Measurements Bust: 32 -34 inches Waist: 26.5 inches Hips: 36 inches Length: 53 inches This vintage Leonard Paris floral party dress from the 1990s is in good condition, with mild signs of wear and age. It is made out of an engineered watercolor print on lightweight silk. The full-length gown has wide straps, a square neckline, fitted bodice, back zipper, removable sash with hook-and-eye closures and full skirt. It is fully lined. High-quality vintage pieces like this are yours to live in and love while increasing in value every year. It’s never too soon to start collecting them, as an investment in your wardrobe—and in yourself.

However, just a few days later, on July 15th, 1997, Gianni was tragically murdered outside his Miami Beach home. Despite his untimely death, his contributions to the world of fashion continue to be celebrated, and his legacy remains an inspiration too many. This collection is iconic as it’s the final collection before his passing. The collection very much showed a new direction for the house.
