About the Item

This eye-catching cocktail dress was designed by Antony Price during the late 1980s to early 1990s. During the 1980s, Price became known for his image-making, collaborating on outlandish, seductive designs with the most famous musicians of the 20th century, including David Bowie, Duran Duran and Roxy Music. He went on to dress Anjelica Huston, Jerry Hall, Yasmin Le Bon, Diana Ross and Dita Von Teese. The fashion journalist and AnOther’s Magazine Editor, Alexander Fury, aptly noted “an unparalleled master of modern made-to-measure occasion wear and the most criminally overlooked designer in British fashion.” Cut to a tight-fitting, décolletage-revealing silhouette, this playful gown showcases Price’s signature high-glamour aesthetic. The fabric is luscious; a multi-hued, emerald-green crushed velvet which flashes red as it moves with the wearer. The top is corseted the whole way round, emphasising the curves of the wearer. The neckline is draped and becomes a theatrical shawl which drapes around the shoulders. The dress is fully lined in russet satin and there is a slit in the skirt at the rear to allow for ease of movement. This dress fastens with a hidden tonal zip at the back. The original label is in place with its ochre-yellow “Antony Price” font on a charcoal-grey background. This piece is in excellent vintage condition with no flaws of any note. The fabric is 100% Rayon and it is labelled a vintage size UK 12, but this is better suited in modern sizing to a UK 8-10 or US 4-6; the cloth has no stretch. For any Price aficionados or collectors, we also have this dress is crushed purple which was owned by Jerry Hall, accompanied by photographs of her wearing the dress. MEASUREMENTS BUST - 34 in.
