1930s Halter Neck Silk Chiffon Capelet Gown [xs/sm]
£642.00
Unbelievably special 1930s petal pink silk crepe gown uniquely styled with silk chiffon and lace detailing. The shape of this gown is unlike anything I have ever seen before- the silk crepe body is cut with an open back halter neck with large wing-like panels of silk chiffon draping across the shoulders and down the back in a caplet shape. The effect is incredible, simultaneously sexy and sweet. The perfect layering is completed with gorgeous panels of triangular French lace, and a glittering large metal bullion appliqué at the neckline. This gown is incredibly beautifully made, hand finished, with every detail accounted for. Closes at the side with hidden snap closures and covered buttons at the nape of the neck. A Fashion Originator's Guild Association registered design label is present, a sign of the immaculate craftsmanship of this stunning gown.
