This is such a seductive and enchanting look from the rare Philip Hulitar 'Old Hollywood' designer label. Perfect for any upcoming event; you can't help but feel feminine in this beauty! "The star of a gifted designer has risen recently on the fashion horizon," The New York Times reported after Philip Hulitar opened his own firm in 1949, and I can definitely see why. This luxurious garment is fashioned from stunning light-weight silk chiffon that has been hand-pleated. The gorgeous three-dimensional ruching gives the garment so much depth and texture. The bodice has an exquisite draped one-shoulder that continues down the backside and couture style corset boning. I love the hourglass nipped waist silhouette which is so figure flattering. A dramatic velvet-bow accented side-swag that connects to the shoulder finishes this showstopper off with a perfect femme fatale vibe! The construction is so fresh and modern yet still has that perfect timeless quality.
