About the Item
Fully restored, this breathtaking dress recalls the ethereal evening gowns designed by Jeanne Lanvin and Coco Chanel in the late 1920s. Using a skin-tight nude net body stocking as its base, the dress features a skirt with two tiers of ruffles sewn in curves that match the contours of the buttocks front and back. For further allure, an embroidered and appliqué gull pattern sprays from the left hip to the right shoulder on the front and rear bodice. An unforgettable dress that is certain to make an impression.
Sleeveless bias gown of nude stretch net; round front and scooping back neckline piped with nude satin. Two 5” tiers of ruffles at hip and mid-thigh, with uppermost tier contouring in a round “W” shape front and back. Peach yarn-embroidered seagull silhouettes all over gown with darker velvet appliqué seagulls from left hip to right shoulder in front and back. Pullover construction with no closures of any kind; unlined and completely transparent.
