Vintage Pauline Trigère Black Silk Draped Cocktail Dress Circa 1960s
About the Item
An exceptional example of mid-century American couture, this authentic vintage Pauline Trigère little black dress dates to the late 1950s to early 1960s. A master of refined construction and sculptural draping, Trigère was known for her understated yet impeccably tailored eveningwear — and this piece embodies that aesthetic beautifully.
Crafted from supple black silk, the dress features an elegant draped shawl collar adorned with a dramatic black silk bow at the neckline. The silhouette is sleek and feminine, while the subtly lower-cut back adds a note of quiet allure. Clean lines and thoughtful proportion allow the architectural draping to take center stage — a hallmark of Pauline Trigère’s design philosophy.
The dress fastens discreetly with a metal zipper beneath the wearer’s left arm, maintaining the seamless front and back lines. Timeless and sophisticated, this vintage black silk cocktail dress is ideal for evening events, gallery openings, formal dinners, or any occasion calling for classic couture elegance.
