Constructed in the most refined airy silk chiffon, this haute couture runway dress (look 22 -> see picture 3) is a lightness dream. This special piece features a bustier dress (see picture 14) and an over-dress. The skirt of the bustier dress has 3 layers of silk chiffon of different colors. Inspired by the automnal tones, the shades are divine. The dress closes on the left side with a concealed zip, four press buttons, two hooks and eye. Cut for a loose fit, the over-dress features a turtleneck collar which is embellished with iridescent crystal embroideries (see pictures 7 & 17).
