An absolutely stunning and incredibly rare metallic floral motif lamé bias-cut gown dating back to the 1930's 'Old Hollywood' era of glamour. So Jean Harlow! The fabric itself is a masterpiece! I've never seen such a colorful floral lamé print before and it reads so chic in the vertical striped pattern. The sleeveless low plunge bodice has the most magnificent cut-out back design with a stunning rhinestone paste appliqué pin that can be adjusted. Definitely looks like the style of gown that inspired John Galliano while he was working at Christian Dior. This figure flattering dress nips in at the waist while skimming the hips in a beautiful bias-cut construction. The complex pattern work of the skirting creates an extra long, lean look. We added many detail pictures so you can appreciate this masterful achievement.
