2005 Oscar de la Renta Runway Navy Sheer-Tulle Hourglass Feather Mermaid Gown

About the Item

A spectacular and well documented Oscar de la Renta navy blue beaded sheer-net hourglass mermaid gown dating back to his 2005 spring/summer collection. As shown, our glamorous gown in ivory was look 59 down the runway and cost well over $9,000 when new. Oscar de la Renta was one of the world's leading fashion designers. Trained by Cristóbal Balenciaga and Antonio Castillo, he became internationally known in the 1960's as one of the couturiers to dress Jacqueline Kennedy. This breathtaking creation from Oscar De La Renta himself is not only rare but so incredibly timeless. The garment's hourglass mermaid silhouette reads so modern yet the impressive couture beading look like they came from a 1920's French flapper dress! The embellishment, made up of six different style beads, showcases a divine deco floral pattern. The exacting perfection of the three-dimensional beadwork is beyond compare, while the sheer navy-blue net has a magical allure. The seductive strapless illusion bodice is balanced with the sheer lean, long sleeves. This figure flattering gown nips in at the waist, skims the hips and flows to the floor with the prettiest feathered mermaid design. The detailed ostrich feathers throughout the skirting really bring the gown to a new level. Here is a look with attitude and elegance. Measurements Marked US 4 Bust 32-33 Waist: 24-25 Hips: up to 35 inches Total Length: 57 inches This Oscar de la Renta designer gown is in excellent condition with no rips, stains or holes. Perfectly working back center zipper. Lined in matching navy blue silk. We are excited to add close detail pictures so one can appreciate this masterful achievement.
