An absolutely breathtaking and highly coveted John Galliano ocean blue sequin embellished hourglass stretch viscose gown daating back to his 2007 spring-summer ‘Fabergé’ collection. These designs were all about sophisticated luxury which could be seen in the fabrics, draping, and beadwork. When discussing the collection, Galliano described the pieces as abstract homages to Fabergè’s art. He stated it’s, “almost as if Lichtenstein or Jeff Koons had seen it through their eyes.” John Galliano is widely considered one of the most innovative and influential fashion designers of the early twenty-first century. It is easy to see why when you look at this stunning gown; it perfectly fuses sophistication and sensuality. The Grecian-inspired bodice is one of the dress's most captivating features, with its expertly draped fabric creating a soft, sculptural effect that highlights the feminine form. That backless scoop is so epic. The dress is embellished with shimmering jewel-toned sequins in an intricate pattern that catches the light in a dazzling, almost liquid manner. The gown’s figure-hugging full length skirt flows into a sweeping back train; completing the piece with the kind of exquisite tailoring Galliano is known for. This dramatic dress is a striking example of Galliano’s ability to mix the ethereal with the bold. It is a perfect embodiment of his innovative spirit, where every detail comes together in flawless harmony, offering both timeless glamour and avant-garde artistry.
