ID: 0802241

Size: extra small

Condition: excellent

A super seductive and highly coveted Christian Dior ruby red silk built-in bra hourglass bias-cut gown dating back to John Galliano's epic 2010 spring/summer runway collection. Vogue stated, "Double respect is due to John Galliano this season. First, it was he who entered the subject of lingerie at the top of fashion's agenda. Second, for ready-to-wear, he seized his advantage, melding a soft, delightfully thought-out version of the idea into a show with a forties film noir theme. For perhaps the first time, it meant that Galliano had captured the romantic essence of his Dior couture and made sense of it as fully resolved ready-to-wear. It'll be expensive, of course, but oh so seductive." John Galliano is widely considered one of the most innovative and influential fashion designers of the early twenty-first century. He mingled his references in often surprising juxtapositions to create extravagant yet intricately engineered and meticulously tailored clothes. This well-documented runway look #41, modeled by Thana Kuknen, is everything you want in Galliano era Dior. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; luxurious ruby red liquid silk satin with a sheer red organza bodice. There is a beautiful black built-in bra which looks fantastic with the front-tie cap sleeves design. This gown has stunning side covered buttons and skillful draping for sensational movement. We added many pictures so you can see how gorgeous it is from all angles. The sensual bias-cut full length skirting emphasizes a woman's seductive shape without adding any bulk or volume to the actual hips. This is the dress you will reach for anytime you want to be noticed. A rare wearable piece of John Galliano fashion history.
