Ungaro Ruched Faux Ostrich Cocktail Mini Dress
About the Item
This 80's Ungaro Parallèle cocktail dress is cut from – probably – black silk ? (the composition materiel tag is missing) that's ruched and ruffled to create a flattering faux ostrich texture (see picture 9) throughout the close fit. Framed by exaggerated padded shoulders for a sense of the iconic 80's "power dressing", it features short sleeves that part in two (see pictures 11 & 12). These two sleeve sections can be tied together (not pictured though). The mini dress fastens with a button, press stud and a concealed zip at the back and it's distinguished by a diamond-shape open-back (see pictures 15, 16 & 17). Fully lined, the dress is labeled an UK size 6 (US 2) but runs a bit big to size. Made in Italy.
