1987 Calvin Klein Documented Sheer Black Lace Hourglass Mermaid Gown

An important and well-documented Calvin Klein designer sheer black lace-illusion gown dating back to his 1987 runway collection. Calvin Klein's vision was very influential that by 1975 Vogue was calling his work "a definitive picture of the American look." This seductive gown has serious allure with the hourglass mermaid silhouette. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; chiffon lined sheer floral motif lace of the highest quality. The chic bodice has a high dramatic collar and lean, long sleeves. A curved waist with mermaid fishtail skirting creates the perfect amount of drama to this timeless beauty. It is impeccably seamed and on the level of modern day couture. Not only is this a gorgeous gown from an iconic American designer but we also found a picture of young Cindy Crawford modeling this showstopper down the 1987 Calvin Klein runway.
