Marni Yellow Floral Cotton Ruched Dress Spring 2017 New W Tags

About the Item

Fashion has always taken inspiration from art in one form or another. For Marni’s Spring 2017 collection, Avant Garde creative director Francesco Risso—in more ways than one—took a sculptural and decorative approach to create a collection that may very well redefine the concept of wearable art. Emblematic of Risso’s artistic vision, this incredible dress takes ruching to the next level. As seen as look #11 on that season’s runway, this dress is done in a beautiful crisp and soft cotton. Featuring a print of small white and black flowers on a pastel yellow ground, the dress begins with an unusual ruched one-shoulder neckline that is secured with a cream rope tie at the neck. The dramatic, oversized right sleeve is ruched down the front of the arm, finishing with a rope tie at the wrist. The sleeveless left side of the dress has a revealing slit which reaches from the neck to the waist, bringing a welcome lightness and risqué element to this unconventional masterpiece. Size estimate: Small Size 38IT 2/4 US Bust: 34 inches Waist: 26-32 inches fitted with elastic Hips: 36 Length: 51- 63 inches Falling from a gathered waist to a midi-length several inches below the knee, the skirt features more ruching that curves from below the right hip down the center front of the skirt, finishing in a rope tie at the incredible front fishtail hem. The gathers at the waist and ruching at the neck and skirt create pleats throughout, giving this dress a sculptural, dynamic feel. Romantic and dramatic, this head-turning dress is the perfect choice for a spring wedding or special occasion. In excellent condition, this 2017 Marni dress is unlined and has a rope tie closure at the neck. Purchased from Bergdorf Goodman, the dress appears to never have been worn and comes with the original tags still attached. High-quality 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. - Follow us on Instagram @BASHAGOLD

  • JW Anderson Silk Macrame Wood Beaded Fringe Dress Runway Spring 2019
    By J W Anderson
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    British designer JW Anderson is a trailblazer in the contemporary fashion market. With a vast array of unique collections and collaborations, Anderson’s aesthetic offers a much-needed reorientation of fashion by combining elements of timeless tailoring and artisanal handicraft. Following this vision for his Spring 2019 collection, this macramé dress is a perfect testament to design that is both simple and complex. The bodice of the dress is a combination of white and anthracite crepe de chine. The liquid fabric drapes beautifully over the shoulders creating a mock-shawl effect while the white and grey provide a sophisticated contrast. On one of the sleeves, the grey crepe is ruched while the other is split at the shoulder. This asymmetry provides additional interest to the very geometric lattice beading on the front of the bodice. The skirt is slightly pegged and is done from a neutral linen underlayer and a macramé overskirt that incorporates wooden beading in the mix of the knotting. The skirt finishes with a band of widely spaced fringe. The combination of raw edges, wood, and natural tones, paired with the modern silkiness of the grey crepe give this dress a refreshing and serene vibe. It can be worn for a casual day dress...
