Breathtaking Ungaro haute couture ivory silk asymmetric gown dating back to his 2000-2001 fall/winter runway collection. Ungaro, who trained under Spanish designer Cristobal Balenciaga, described himself as a "sensual obsessive" with a reputation for bold looks. This gorgeous documented runway gown definitely confirms Ungaro's genius. The fabric itself is a masterpiece; high-quality luxurious pleated silk satin which molds to the body effortlessly. The heavily embellished, beaded bandeau bodice really steals the show. This in itself must have taken weeks to complete. The gathered one-shoulder compliments the seductive side cut-out perfectly. The complex skirting with ultra low backless design really looks magnificent when you walk. We added any pictures so one can appreciate this masterful achievement. This would make a beautiful red carpet or bridal moment.
