About the Item

Step into timeless elegance with this rare vintage Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti dress from the 1980s. Made in Italy and produced under the prestigious Aeffe group, this piece perfectly embodies the youthful yet refined essence of the brand's early years. Crafted from a structured yet comfortable polyester blend, the dress features a classic navy blue tone enriched by crisp white ribbon-style trim on the sleeves, waist, and hemline-recalling an iconic nautical aesthetic. The bateau neckline is accented with signature gold-tone embossed buttons, each engraved with a crest-like emblem, adding a touch of luxury and distinction. The silhouette is designed to flatter: a relaxed top with slight gathering at the waistband gives way to a softly pleated skirt that hits just above the knee. The waist can be gently cinched from the back for a more personalized fit, allowing it to adapt to different body types. This piece is a beautiful representation of the sophisticated yet playful spirit of Philosophy's early collections. In excellent vintage condition. Please note: The measurements you find are flat measurements of the dress. To ensure the right fit, we suggest trying on a similar garment and comparing its measurements to ours.
