ID: 0304242

Size: small

Condition: excellent

An ultra seductive and instantly recognizable Dolce & Gabbana floral print stretch velvet bustier bra-strap slip dress dating back to their 1997 spring-summer collection. This design debuted on the runway in multiple similar floral fabric patterns. As pictured, the floral chiffon version was also Jennifer Lawrence's choice look when appearing on the Graham Norton Show back in 2016. Dolce & Gabbana are considered the inventors of a Mediterranean style that draws its inspiration from women of Italian realism, sensual and austere like Anna Magnani, to whom they dedicated a collection whose key element was the 1940's slip. They are not looking for a retro look; Dolce & Gabbana turned to the past for innovation. The designers once stated, "We want to use the past to project it into the future". This archival slip dress is a wonderful example of their genius. The ultra soft floral stretch velvet hugs the body perfectly so it's so flattering from all angles. The bustier bra-strap design and small front cut-out at the bust makes this look a total knockout. This is definitely the dress you will reach for anytime you want to get noticed and the best part is, she's unworn with original Dolce & Gabbana store tag!
