An absolutely breathtaking and incredibly rare Switzerland couture made for Lord & Taylor cream silk satin strapless full skirted ballgown dating back to the mid 1950's. As you can see, this custom commission was heavily influenced by Christian Dior and Pierre Balmain. Authentic couture fashion examples from this time period are truly coveted and are becoming incredibly hard to find. The fabric used is of the highest quality; mid weight cream silk-satin with a unique pale pink inverted underlay down the front. I absolutely adore the intricate embroidered floral motif embellishments throughout the entire front. Large prong-set rhinestones add such beautiful sparkle. The alluring boned sweetheart strapless showcases a woman's captivating bustline. The fitted nipped-waist gives the garment the most flattering silhouette. This epic gown would make such a stunning bridal or red carpet look.
