This gorgeous Emilio Pucci dress is made from one of his signature velvet fabrics. These velvet pieces hold color especially well and they have a rich decadent feel to them that is hard to beat with their modern counterparts. The print would have been created by Emilio and then transferred to the velvet. This one uses a rich color palette of fuchsia, pinks, burgundy and browns. The colors all pop against each other beautifully. The dress is kept simple in its cut so that the colors can shine. The bodice skims over the bust with a V neck that scoops down to meet the angled band of contrasting print set at the waist. This tops a simple skirt that curves over the hips and widens out a touch as it nears the hem. Down each sleeve is a panel of one of his signature borders that create contrasting to the print. This same border treatment circles the hem, cuffs and is used to define the waist. This is classic Pucci that is instantly recognizable. Presents as excellent condition with some notes below to review
Fully lined in a white silk and closes with a hidden set, back painted metal zipper that is hidden under a flap of fabric and goes to the waist band only. Has a second hidden set zipper at the side. There is some color run under one arm that is only on the exterior. There is also a slight yellowing on one dot and some fading to the velvet at the back of one sleeve. Once on these are very minor due to the extensive print. Please review the photos provided after the label shot
