Special Features: This is one of the most gorgeous evening gowns we've owned and we found this one in a brocante in France. The story told to us that it was created by a seamster that supposedly worked at the House of Dior atelier. The dreamy gown is in brown silk chiffon and lined in a peach silk. Gathers fall from the neckline creating a blouson waistline and a large taffeta rosette adorns the side waistline. Full gored skirt is trimmed with a taffeta ruffle along the hemline. Long unlined billowing sleeps end in gathers at the wrists. Center back zipper in the skirt and a single hook and eye at the back neckline. 

Condition: Gently worn with only two pin holes in the lower side skirt.
