Size: small / medium 

Condition: very good

An elegant study in modern 'Old Hollywood' glamour, this Ralph Lauren purple label platinum silk satin gown dates back to his 2014 fall/winter collection. Ralph Lauren built one of the most influential fashion empires, redefining classic style through an idealized vision of sophistication and ease. Renowned for blending cinematic romance with impeccable tailoring, his work finds a clear expression in this gown, marrying refined construction with a sensual, screen-worthy presence. For this special collection Lauren presented a strikingly split show: the opening half introduced his new Polo label, while the latter returned to the heightened elegance of his namesake line. Vogue noted that “there was no mistaking Polo for the Ralph Lauren portion of this outing, which was as elegant as they come, and the designer’s finest work in some time.” This gown closely recalls Look 36, modeled by Karlie Kloss, capturing the same sleek sensibility and fluid restraint. Crafted in luminous platinum silk satin and cut on the bias, the gown skims the body with a liquid drape that elongates the silhouette. The seductive halter bodice is softly sculpted, forming a refined cowl at the neckline that falls with natural ease. The satin glides cleanly through the waist and hips before pooling to the floor. Included is a matching oversized sash, offering versatile styling options—worn as a dramatic shawl, wrapped at the neck, or styled as an elegant head covering. The back reveals a striking open design, anchored by a ruched satin band that fastens discreetly at the center. From there, the skirt flows into a sweeping train that trails gracefully behind, complete with a subtle finger loop that allows it to be gathered and carried with poise. The perfect 'silver screen starlet' 1930's vibe! This epic Ralph Lauren would be perfect for any wedding or red carpet affair.
