The Shrimpton Couture Archives

• This gorgeous dress was based on Look 57 from the Cruise 2008 show
• Under the creative direction of John Galliano
• Vogue said that the collection was done "in an electric-bright palette.. and channelled Barbara Hutton's sixties—a glittery, lame, paisley, and leopard-print world of muumuus, bikinis, capri pants, trapeze dresses, cat-eye sunglasses, and scarf-wrapped hats. It bordered on camp... and Kitschy or not, there was no denying the workmanship that went into crafting the large collection."
  
• The dress is made out of a soft pink silk chiffon that is done in soft gathers over the entire dress. 
  
• It is a touch paler pink in person than how it photoed here
• The dress is suspended from two tiny silk chiffon straps that curve up and over each shoulder.
• The front crosses over itself for a soft plunge feel and the back scoops down to leave a bare expanse of skin showing.
• The waist is nipped in and has a bit of stretch to it for a comfortable fit
• The skirt falls to the floor and widens out as it nears the hem. The sheer amount of silk chiffon used in the skirt gives it beautiful movement as you move. The slightest bit of air makes it billow out around you. 
  
• Fully lined in a matching pink silk chiffon through the entire dress
• It closes with a hidden set side zipper
• Tagged a FR40, GB12, IT44, US8
• Excellent condition
