\"Barbra<\/a>
Barbra Streisand at the Scopus Award Gala in 1984 (left) wearing the gold gown<\/a> (center) she commissioned Ray Aghayan<\/a> to design for her. The evening dress was inspired by Gustav Klimt<\/a>\u2019s 1907 Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I<\/em> (detail, right).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Rare and unique items of exceptional provenance<\/a> are often described as \u201cmuseum quality,\u201d a characterization easily applied to this 1984 beaded gold-lam\u00e9 dress<\/a> by Iranian-born designer Ray Aghayan<\/a> (1928\u20132011). An exemplary piece of archival fashion<\/a>, this meticulously crafted treasure is doubly suited for museum exhibition, as it is not only a masterpiece in its own right but was also inspired by one. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shimmering creation is an homage to Austrian painter Gustav Klimt<\/a>\u2019s 1907 Portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer I \u2014 <\/em>the pivotal artwork popularized as \u201cThe Woman in Gold\u201d thanks to Anne-Marie O\u2019Connor\u2019s 2012 book, The Lady in Gold,<\/em> and a 2015 film starring Helen Mirren, which chronicle the true story of the painting\u2019s plunder from the Bloch-Bauer family in Vienna by the Nazis and the landmark legal battle to restitute the work to its rightful heirs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decades before these literary and cinematic accounts, Klimt\u2019s Art Nouveau<\/a> masterpiece was brought to life in the 1980s by Aghayan, whose couture interpretation was commissioned by EGOT-winning singer and actress Barbra Streisand.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n

Streisand wore the gown for her 1984 acceptance of the Scopus Laureate Award, bestowed on her by the Hebrew University of Jerusalem for her professional accomplishments and her continued advancement of Jewish education. Cut in the Empire style from gold lam\u00e9, it mirrors Bloch-Bauer\u2019s face-framing square neckline. Aghayan added delicate off-the-shoulder cap sleeves and gave it an elegant, trimmed-down Regency-style train, in contrast to Klimt\u2019s more dramatic one, which sweeps across the canvas and envelops the sitter in gilded iconography. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Klimt\u2019s motifs were largely inspired by ancient Byzantium<\/a>, including such artifacts as the circa 547 mosaic of Empress Theodora in the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna, Italy, which he visited in 1903. Aghayan\u2019s design is no less detailed in its embellishment, as the entire garment is painstakingly embroidered with thousands of hand-sewn sequins, beads and faceted stones echoing the symbols and dynamic texture of Klimt\u2019s gold-leafed canvas. <\/p>\n\n\n

Aghayan began his career at just 13, when he assisted his mother, a couturier in Tehran, with her design for a dress for Fawzia Fuad of Egypt, the first wife of the last shah of Iran. He eventually immigrated to the United States and is celebrated for his prolific career designing for television, film and theater productions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to Streisand, whom he had earlier costumed for the 1975 film Funny Lady<\/em>, Aghayan\u2019s client list included such stars as Judy Garland, Diana Ross and Julie Andrews. He was nominated for numerous awards, in 1967 winning the first ever Emmy for Outstanding Costume Design, which he shared with equally legendary<\/a> fashion designer Bob Mackie<\/a>, who was also his life partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Streisand\u2019s stunning gown is offered on 1stDibs by TheRealList<\/a>, a Philadelphia-based dealer with a collection of covetable vintage fashion<\/a>. This piece, however, is understandably a special favorite. \u201cIt\u2019s the rich history of the designer, the client and the inspiration behind it that elevates this dress to the status of a masterpiece,\u201d says TheRealList’s Alex Cohen. \u201cNo photograph can truly capture its essence or remarkable detail. When light hits the dress, every sequin and bead comes to life, radiating a mesmerizing, warm golden aura.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Detail<\/a>

That\u2019s a familiar experience for anyone who has seen Klimt\u2019s \u201cWoman in Gold\u201d in person. The dress, like the painting, appears to be almost breathing; its streamlined silhouette and bejeweled surface are restrained yet exuberant, serene yet viscerally dynamic, full of exquisite tension. Fit for an empress and made for Hollywood royalty, it is a truly breathtaking piece worthy of a museum\u2019s collection \u2014 or a particularly fabulous closet. <\/p>\n\n\n\t
