Printed red silk chiffon with metallic gold brocade.

Condition: Perfect.

Comments: Amazing, shimmering fabric; the lovely multi-colored floral chiffon is brocaded all over in gold leaves and flowers. This evening gown is constructed as a simple column which softly ties in front at the drop waist. Added to the gown are floating panels - a long bias cut, scalloped hem over skirt and two cape-like panels that attach to the back of the low cut neckline. This stunning gown would fit a tall woman, size 10-12.
