Eccentric gala evening dress designed by famous stylist Diane von Fürstenberg in the 1980s, of fine French manufacture. The dress is made entirely of colorful silk satin, on shades of red, orange, gold and black, takes geometric shapes and creates an infectious swirl. The upper part of the dress, on the other hand, is made of feathers, also following the colors of red and black, with some touches of light blue. A real explosion of harmonious colors, which make the person wearing the dress the real star of the evening. The dress has no straps or neckline, a feathered band is seen gently wrapping around the shoulders, securing the dress to the body. An element from the 1920s, which has always been a symbol of class and elegance, but also of sensuality and arrogance. The light blue feathers placed occasionally give a different touch of light, as if to emphasize the sparkle of the dress. Under the feathered sash we see a bodice made of black silk satin, which perfectly encircles the wearer's body, thanks to the belt created by the two circles, with red and black striped weave...
