Garish Vintage Tailored Dress in Pearl Gray Silk Satin

About the Item

Sumptuous vintage sartorial dress designed in the 1950s, fine Italian craftsmanship. The dress is made entirely of pearl gray silk satin, very elegant and delicate. The straps are thin and stop at the shoulder, giving prominence to the chest and its neckline. The neckline is very subdued but still very elegant, a sweet soft V-neck, creating a very sensual see-through effect. At the waist, the bodice is very fitted and has a very nice decorative bow with fringed ends, again in the same fabric as the dress. At the height of the hips the dress creates a slight bulge, typical of the 1950s. The dress reaches the calf height elegantly, remaining rounded and falling down softly in a bell shape. The back features a zipper that allows it to be opened and closed, and we see how the fabric is worked to create a faux slit, beautiful. The weave represents leaves and flowers, very fine. The dress is ideal for gala and or theatrical evenings.

  • Vivetta elegant floral pattern cocktail dress
    Located in Milano, IT
    Romantic dress with universal and classic irony . The dress features nostalgic references such as flowers that blend with contemporary shapes and preppy silhouettes to create fresh collections full of fantasy. Her designs are inspired by her love of animals, especially cats, happy memories and stories from her childhood. Vivetta channels the charm of vintage toys, antiques and wall hangings into poetic collections with a surrealist twist. Her creations are ideas in motion that reference designers from different artistic disciplines: From Italian legends Gio Ponti and Fornasetti, to the Art Deco works of Erté, Luigi Serani's illustrations, Slim's photographs and Pablo Picasso's masterpieces. Vivetta's dreamlike drawings move to the sounds of Marianne Faithfull and Connan Mockasin, Catherine Deneuve and the Nouvelle Vague. Experimental animated films from the 1960s and 1970s and references to the creative minds of Norman McLaren...
