This is spectacular one shoulder dress that only has its Bergdorf's label and no other. It is so utterly perfectly feminine and romantic and still feels as fresh now as it would have then. It is made out of an absolutely stunning brocade that has enough structure to hold the lines of the dress. The design that runs over it is amazing with an washed painted feeling floral background that has an almost luminescent combination of blues purples, pinks and green. Onto that is a secondary floral pattern that has been woven through the fabric with a pink matte thread. This technique makes the top pink flowers feel like they are jumping off the fabric and it is quite beautiful. The dress drapes over the body perfectly. The bodice is cut to skim over you and it is gathered into a wide shoulder at one side. This leaves the other shoulder bare and exposed. The waist is seamed and while you could add a belt to cinch it in more it is equally as gorgeous worn just as it is. The skirt falls under that to the floor and gradually widens out as it nears the floor. There is an inverted fold set to each side at the front and back and this gives the skirt just a touch more volume. It also adds an interesting detail and gives the dress some structure. I Love it. It is just stunning. Excellent condition

Fully lined in pink silk satin through the bodice and a pink silky rayon through the skirt and closes with side painted metal zipper. Hand finishes. Light boning through the sides of the bodice.
